I wasn't very indiscreet and yet

That is a notion that I might as well forget

Friends look at me these days with fond surprise

But when I start to speak they roll their eyes


Let me tell you about her

Hush now, I've said too much

There's something indescribable I can't quite catch

Let me tell you about her

The way that she makes me feel

Then draw a curtain on this scene I shan't reveal


Some things are too personal

Too intimate to spill

And gentlemen don't speak of them

And this one never will


I wasn't very conversational

Accept to say that, "You're sensational"

Friends now regard me with indulgent smiles

But when I start to sing they run for miles


Let me tell you about her

Hush now, I've said too much

There's something indescribable I can't quite catch

Let me tell you about her

The way that she makes me feel

Then draw a curtain on this scene I shan't reveal
