|
It sure was scary |
|
When I met |
|
Mary I didn't understand myself |
|
I was a fool when we were in school |
|
And she understood me better |
|
I guess I had passion |
|
It startled her fashion |
|
She thought it a small price to pay |
|
For fiery nights under northern lites |
|
Helps the snow slowly melt away |
|
Herbert's a loser |
|
His father's a boozer |
|
He didn't like himself |
|
He lost his cool and he drowned in a pool |
|
After writing a classic love letter |
|
I guess too much passion |
|
Had startled his fashion |
|
It started and ended that day |
|
He wrote the letter there wasn't one better |
|
One reading turned millions his way |
|
Now there's |
|
Mary It isn't so scary |
|
Now that I like myself |
|
I'm no fool and we're not in school |
|
The water can't get any wetter |
|
Now I'm in fashion |
|
I'll warm up her passion |
|
She'll think it a small price to pay |
|
For fiery nights under northern lites |
|
Helps the snow slowly melt away |
