Ellen's Telling Me What I Want To Hear Lyrics

I was driving (yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)
She sat beside me just the way that you now are
And I never wanted anything
more than Ellen telling me the things she did
She told me of the boy she used to love
Said she'd stayed at home until she 'd had enough
Now she's living in the city
and that's allright by me!

We were walking, I was walking her home
Middle of February, I shivered in the cold
and thought
'If I could only walk more slowly,
tonight wouldn't end so fast
It could last for hours and hours'
And if when we finally got there, she said
'Would you like some tea?'
I'd glanced at my watch and say
'Sounds allright by me!'
