IN SOME WAY I LOVED YOU

Ralph McTell

I can tell by your laughter
You think you know what I'm after
And I don't mind that you know
I'm just sorry I let it show

I can tell by your eyes
The suggestion comes as little or no surprise
And you don't mind that I know
Or you wouldn't have let it show

I can tell by your walk
I won't need to make small talk
When we get home
Like ask your name and then promise to 'phone

I can tell by your smile
That tomorrow you will not think that it's been worthwhile
And I don't know what to say
To prove it need not be that way

I can tell by your smile
That tomorrow you will not think that it's been worthwhile
And I don't know what to say
To prove it need not be that way

I can tell by your crying
You'd only think that I was lying
If I said what I know to be true
That tonight in some way I loved you
That tonight in some way I loved you
