Never Said I Love You (With Carol Pope)

Never said I loved you
'Cause I didn't want to lower my guard
Never said I loved you
'Cause I ain't always this hot

When the waiter shouts for last call
He says her name with total recall
Suggests the perfect place to go
No human being shall ever know
The places I can take you to
We've even got a skyline view

But I won't say I love you
'Cause I don't want to lower my guard
Won't say I love you
I ain't always this hot

She acts surprised to hear him scheme
But answers yes just like a dream
But don't forget, I need respect
Important things I must protect
My reputation at the office
Please forgive my cowardice

But I won't say I love you
'Cause I only want to like you a lot
Won't say I love you
I ain't always this hot

After all the groaning's over
He starts to smile and rolls her over
Another number in the book
Forgot to ask her if she'll cook
I'm sorry if you've been mislead
But I'd rather you than an empty bed

Disappearing in thin air
She starts to smile and combs her hair
I hope he phones on Friday night
I've nothing planned and he's all right
Maybe we could catch a show
With subtle words I'll let him know

Never said I loved you
Didn't want to lower my guard
Never said I loved you
I ain't always this hot

Never said I loved you
I only want to like you a lot
Never said I loved you
I ain't always this hot

Oh I never said I loved you
Only want to like you a lot
Never said I loved you
I ain't always this hot

A room with a view
A room with a view
A room with a view, how do you do?
Come on to my place, babe and I'll tickle you
I'll roll you over in my room with a view
Looking out over the chimney
A room with a view
