Advance Base Rene Goodnight
When I meet you at Juan's party you'd just moved here
You knew some of my friends from Tulsa
I liked your accent and we talked til Juan kicked us out
You walked me back to my apartment
But you didn't come inside
You just smiled at me so wide
You said "I'm so glad I met you
Rene Goodnight"
I thought about you the next morning and called up Fran
To see how well she knew you in Tulsa
She said "Uh oh he's got a reputation here
I heard that he hurt some old partners"
Is that why you had to move
Are the Tulsa rumors true
Whеn you called that night I sent it to voicemail
Whеn I saw you at the diner the next weekend
I got scared and ducked into a booth
And hid behind a menu til you got up to go
I watched you pay your check & leave alone
Now I see you in my dreams
Sometimes sinister & mean
Sometimes sweet as hell
I don't know what to believe
When you walked me home that night
I had felt safe by your side
You said "I'm so glad I met you
Rene Goodnight"
