Farside The Slowdance
I walked home, you drove off.
you probably slept more than I did.
the monkey wrench inside my chest
told me not to run.
from a stranger to a stranger:
"why don't we talk a while?
I've got nothing to lose
but the chance to make you smile"
just be calm, just be cool,
and I won't make any sudden moves.
and while you wait
I'll try to say a joke or two you haven't heard.
from a stranger to a stranger:
"We both could do much worse.
so I hope that one of these nights
you'll use that number in your purse
'cuz lonliness is who I know.
Perhaps he's someone you know,
a mutual friend of ours"
I'm a nerd, you're a queen.
so how about a date?
I didn't know you saw the show.
I thought I saw you leave.
from a stranger to a stranger:
"I could use a ride back home"
I could point out the stars
and we won't have to sleep alone, alone.
this lonliness is who I know.
perhaps he's someone you know.
there's a million words
that I've been saving for a rainy day,
and a million tricks that I could use,
and I'd use them all at once
if that's what I have to do.
I'll find a way to make you stay,
at least until I find another reason, anyway.
I haven't felt this way
since my first day of school.
it's a wish for me to make history with you, with you.
there's a million words
I've been saving for a rainy day,
and a million tricks that I could use,
and I'd juse them all at once
if that's what I have to do.
I'd find a way to make you stay,
least till I find another reason, anyway.
until I find another reason. (2x)
I'd find a way to make you stay
until I find another reason.(3x)
