I'm so afraid of night 'cause I'm too romantic.

Moonlight and stars can make such a fool of me.

You know you're much too near, and I am too romantic,

Wouldn't I be a sight on a bended knee.

I'm startled when you whisper, I'll run if you should sigh,

I must be so careful, or I'll kiss my heart goodbye.

You shouldn't let me dream 'cause I'm too romantic,

Don't make me fall unless it could all come true.
