I Was Telling Her About You Songtext
von Marvin Gaye

My arms were around her, my eyes were aglow
But the moment was tender, the music was low
While we were dancing, I think you should know
I was telling her about you

She kept coming closer, the magic was there
She wore an expression that made people stare
It looked so romantic, darling, I swear
I was telling her about you

When you passed by and caught my eye
You didn′t say a word
You turned to bow and walked right out
And the silence was the loudest that I've ever heard


Come back to me, darling, I must make you see
That things aren′t always what they seem to be
The girl in my arms, she meant nothing to me
I was telling her, oh, I was telling her
I was telling her about you

When you passed by and caught my eye
Baby, you didn't say a word
You turned to bow and walked right out
And the silence was the loudest that I've ever heard

Come back to me, darling, I must make you see
That things aren′t always what they seem to be
Oh, the girl in my arms, she meant nothing to me
I was telling her about you
Only telling her about you
