It's only love you did say
I blame it all on the way
You held your coffee in your hands
So I said yes, one more time, one more time
A cigarette on the floor
The sound of my kitchen door
And every word you said was true
It's only love and I believed you

Well Billy Strayhorn's a fool
This lush life's all out of tune
The roses lay outside my room
'till I said yes, imagine that, imagine that
It seems a blur to me, how?
It all just speaks at me now
And every word you said was true
It's only love and I believed you

This kind of wonderful
It's just not so cool anymore
And I'm so weary all the time
So as you rest your head
You might rest my heart instead
Save those pretty words
Hush now baby
This heart has learned

So on this cold afternoon I'll make my way
And I'll wear my best perfume
I won't look back, please don't look back
Cause it's only love and I believed you
