Is it love that possessed me to buy this new dress For you when we just met? Even I can fall prey to a beautiful face, the low light of this place, the evening haze and the door to my heart is wide open. All you have left to do is just walk in. Yesterday was flat and grey 'til some words were exchanged My life was changed and I knew by mid-afternoon I'd be dressed to the nines tonight and I'd find you. Now it's after dark and I'm down here on a lark on the verge of love, or a big mistake. Your eyes make me weak in the knees. Darling, I'm all dressed up for you. Are you pleased? Am I to be impressed by you Or left distressed by you. I bought this new dress for you. Am I to be embraced by you or left a disgrace and a fool when you're through and teardrops new will stain my dress a mourning blue. How could you be so cruel to sit there looking so cool as though the door to your heart is wide open and all I have left to do is just walk in. Your eyes say, "Maybe it's all up to you, dear." But it's dark and I shouldn't be here. Then you get that look on your face again and I think I should run but I'm barely standing. This heart can't be broken again. But I think I'm too hypnotized to see your intent. Am I to be impressed by you Or left distressed by you? I bought this new dress for you. Am I to be embraced by you Or left a disgrace and a fool when you're through and teardrops new will stain my dress A mourning blue. Soft words and a whisper, your voice in my ear. Soft words and a whisper and there's no turning back from here.
