29: COOL

                   

I had to know, took a chance, and looked.

That’s all it took, a pair of eyes, I’m hooked.

The sight I saw, was so good to see.

Won’t let me be, the thought of you and me. (Chorus)

 

Now all I know, is all that I got to do

Is wash my car, until it looks like new.

I got a hunch, that I’m gonna have it made.

I’ll take her out to lunch, and act like I’m not afraid.

 

I want to tell her something to put her at ease.

I better mention the debts that experience paid.

I need to stress of all things I am good with the truth.

I’m gonna paint her a picture of how it could be.

Then there’s nothing to do but to just wait and see. (Bridge)

 

I call some business, on the telephone

Listen to recordings, pretend that I’m not alone.

I’ll make a list, of places we could go.

Take her to the park, then maybe to a show.

 

I had to know, took a chance, and looked.

That’s all it took, a pair of eyes, I’m hooked.

The sight I saw, was so good to see.

Won’t let me be, the thought of you and me. (Chorus)

 

I’d love to walk, at night upon the beach

Find the brightest star, nothing’s out of reach.

I’d save her place, standing in a line.

Write her a poem of love, and beg her to be mine.

 

(Bridge)

 

If all is said, but nothing’s ever done

We won’t be friends, and can’t be having fun.

My good intentions, are bound to pass her by

Waiting for a chance, to get another try.

 

I had to know, took a chance, and looked.

That’s all it took, a pair of eyes, I’m hooked. (1/2 Chorus)
