My arms were around him,
My eyes were aglow
The moment was tender,
The music was low
But while we were dancing,
I think you oughta know
That I was telling him about you.
He kept coming closer,
The magic was there
He wore an expression
That made people stare
It might of looked romantic but, darling, I swear
Don't you know? Oooh, yeah
I was telling him about you.
When you passed by and caught my eye
You didn't say a word.
You just turned about and walked right out
And the silence was the loudest I've ever heard.
Please, come back to me, daddy.
I must make you see
That things aren't always what they seem to be.
The boy in my arms meant nothing to me.
I was telling him about you.
I was telling him about you.
