So Many Nights

It doesn't matter what I say, doesn't matter what I do
It 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 starsWhen 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 rentSo 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 tonightBut 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 thatSo 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 doPut your waistcoat on
