|
They were made for each other, |
|
At least the TV told her so. |
|
It's just another night in Sydney |
|
Under an FM radio, |
|
Playing songs of innocent and un requited love. |
|
The look on his face said honey, |
|
What are you thinking of? |
|
She said you just sit there quoting lines |
|
From the irresistable Oscar Wilde, |
|
Because your own attempts at modern verse |
|
Lack all the romance of an Irish curse. |
|
She said "Let's hit up the opera house, |
|
If you can think of nothing better." |
|
He said "I've never been one to think at all." |
|
She said "I think I realized that when I read your first love letter, |
|
But it never bothered me at all. |
|
Because we were made of each other, |
|
At least the TV told me so." |
|
It's just another Sunday morning on a Waltons episode, |
|
Mary Ellen said love, hey love, It's just a real good feeling. |
|
When I say "I love you, baby" guess that's what I've been meaning. |
|
But you just sit there quoting lines |
|
From the irresistable Oscar Wilde, |
|
Becuause your own attempts at modern verse |
|
Lack all the romance of an Irish curse. |
|
You might win your beauty queen |
|
If not through love, through sympathy. |
|
But I know your poets dead, |
|
It's your weakness that I want instead. |
|
They drove all night in their 67 Chevy |
|
Until the sun came up upon their love, |
|
And he broke the silence |
|
Before it got to heavy when he said, |
|
"Darling what are you thinking of?" |
|
And she said "Maybe someday we'll get to know eachother, |
|
Maybe then I'll find out who you are." |
|
And he said "I can tell you right now dear |
|
I'm the son of my mother, |
|
And I'm sitting right beside you in this car." |
|
But you just sit there quoting lines |
|
From the irresistable Oscar Wilde, |
|
Because your own attempts at modern verse |
|
Lack all the romance of an Irish curse. |
|
You might win your beauty queen |
|
If not through love, through sympathy. |
|
But I know your poets dead |
|
It's your weakness that I want instead. |

What are yout thinking of? |
