Upon a veil of midnight blue
There hung a crescent moon
To light the view
But you didn't whisper the words
When the moment arose
I wonder how she knows
You find your tongue is tied
Your words escape and hide
But she's so patient and kind
She's prepared to read your mind
That's all very well till you find
Because of the wine you drank
Your mind is just blank
You find your tongue is tied again
Your words escape and hide again
But she's so patient and kind
She's prepared to read your mind
That's all very well till you find
Because of the wine you drank
Your mind is just blank
I wonder how she knows
I guess she will wonder until
You pluck up the courage to tell her how you feel
So close you can feel her heart trembling
You look in her eyes as they close
I wonder how she knows
I wonder how she knows
