A crowded room on Beverley
|
A party for the rent
|
You were sitting casually
|
With a few of your fabulous friends
|
I asked you what your name was
|
But you just turned and laughed
|
Then a little later
|
I finally caught your eye
|
And even though you tried so hard
|
You couldn¡¯t hide your smile
|
I followed you downstairs
|
And we talked for a long long time
|
|
|
Would you call that love
|
Who¡¯s to say
|
I don¡¯t know much about love
|
But you¡¯re the best I ever had
|
|
It wasn¡¯t long before you changed
|
Your phone number to mine
|
You said that you were movin¡¯ in
|
But you needed a little time
|
So I kept all your messages
|
Til you made up your mind
|
Now the rain is fallin¡¯ and the clouds are gathering
|
And the sun refuse to shine
|
Your promises and whispered words
|
Are forever on my mind
|
And I¡¯m left here smokin¡¯ cigarettes
|
That you left behind
|
|
Would you call that love
|
Who¡¯s to say
|
I don¡¯t know much about love
|
But you¡¯re the best I ever had
|
