I hardly knew ya, but I could tell

you told me nothing, oh well

I sat there staring, hoping you'd look back

the night went by, your eyes never saw mine


but nothing won is nothing lost

if anything it's worth the time it cost


the ballroom echoes your tiny steps

the fire's burning the cigarettes

your makeup's bold, your dress is soft as lace

the clock is rolling, my time is gonna end


if nothing gained's nothing to pay

why do I feel like I'm to blame for this?


stand outside of your room

wine and chocolates for you

would you take them from me?

though I hardly knew you

my best wishes were for you

my best wishes were for you


I'll keep my distance, give you space

on second though, I'll keep it to myself

your eyes look like two diamonds in the light

your face looks like an angel's tonight


if you're the one that brought me here

should I be held accountable for this?


stand outside of your room

wine and chocolates for you

would you take them from me?

though I hardly knew ya

my best wishes were for you

my best wishes were for you
