I'm tired of foolin' around

I'm trying hard but I'm no Clark Gable

There's something I wanna say

Here are my cards on the table



The woman I love has eyes of blue

A face like heaven and a body like you

The woman I love is standing next to me



These words don't come easily

These words are a stranger in my town

But I am what I wanna be

Forget the high-brow here's the low-down



chorus x2



It's funny how it never seems

To be the time or place

I can tell it to the world

But I can't tell it to your face



I got a secret I don't want anymore

I'd tell you about it but I'm too damn yellow

What does it matter if you walk out that door

What's to lose baby What the hell



chorus x2



The woman I love is standing next to me
