|
I'm calling in sick this morning. |
|
I got the stomach flu without a warning. |
|
That's not the truth, but that's what |
|
I'll say. |
|
Because I committed to finding you today. |
|
You wrote |
|
Your name and number |
|
On the palm of my hand, |
|
But my palms got sweaty and the ink, it ran. |
|
Don't know if your name is |
|
Jen, Joan or |
|
Jan. I hope you read the personal ads. |
|
This last week |
|
I've tried so hard to think, |
|
But that night |
|
I had about five too many drinks. |
|
So, in the paper |
|
I'll place an ad |
|
To tell you how |
|
I feel and how much fun |
|
I had. You wrote your name and number |
|
On the palm of my hand, |
|
But my palms got sweaty and the ink, it ran. |
|
It smudged off on a beer can. |
|
I hope you read the personal ads. |
|
I met you last week at the 11th street bar. |
|
Now it's you that |
|
I seek, I don't know where(who) you are. |
|
I had the time of my life |
|
In the back seat of my car. |
|
Oh Yeah. I hope you read the personal ads. |
|
If I could just see you again, |
|
My life would feel complete. |
|
At least for one more night next week. |
