So Many Nights

It doesn't matter what
I say, doesn't matter what
I doIt seems
I'm gonna have to change my look for you'
Cause I've got two shoes but they've been walked too far
And I think that we could float from evening to the stars
When I see you in the distance with your friends
I look around and
I look down at my threads
It's inappropriate that
I should present like
A retired matador with unpaid rent
So many nights,
I'm still thinking 'bout you
And so many nights you step in and
I walk through
So he doesn't care, 'cept he still combs his hair
So what am
I supposed to do?
I bought a suit and
I bought a top hat
I put a red stripe down the side of my slacks
Went to the barber got my hair cut high
And I bought a ticket for the opera tonight
But when I see you, your bodice and your pride
It's nice to greet you with an interrupted stride, besides
You say good evening, you don't say goodnight
And I can't deny that
So many nights,
I'm still thinking 'bout you
And so many nights until
I changed my suit
And when I'm bare don't need to comb my hair'
Cause I found what to do
Put your waistcoat on
