It must have been at least three years ago. |
|
I had a crush on this girl |
|
I didn't know. |
|
I thought it was a good idea at the time but |
|
I was pissed. |
|
I tried to find her by sending an ad into ' |
|
The List'. |
|
It was free 'cause they'd just started this brand new section. |
|
First I passed it on to my old friend |
|
Denise for her inspection. |
|
It said: "I saw you twice and both times you were wearing orange. And she told you I fancied you in the toilets at the garage." |
|
There was never a reply, perhaps it didn't astound her. |
|
That's assuming she ever saw it but |
|
I think I've found her. |
|
I thought it could've been her in a club on |
|
Saturday night. |
|
She was a couple of tables away and |
|
I thought it might be. |
|
But I was far too drunk, so an approach was out of the question. |
|
But this guy |
|
Stuart had sent us tickets to see his band |
|
Belle & Sebastian. |
|
We went along thoroughly drunk, stopped for a post-gig "Hello". |
|
And I think the girl |
|
I was looking for is friends with the girl who plays the cello. |
|
I think she's coming to see us when we play. |
|
And every time we meet |
|
I've got nothing to say. |
|
She probably thinks |
|
I'm cute, she maybe thinks |
|
I'm gay. She's probably got a boyfriend anyway. |
|
I remember the first time that |
|
I saw her, |
|
I was completely in awe. |
|
I thought, well that's the kind of girl that |
|
I would like to be my squaw. |
|
And if I could ever be the kind of brave that she would choose. |
|
We'd travel plains with our little baby turned in its little pappoose. |
|
She starts foresighting me in a public bar, my bird was in the bog. |
|
When she returned she said that she would like to give that girl a snog. |
|
And two weeks later we split up and a new lover |
|
I was seeking. |
|
And when I see that girl again |
|
I'm just never up for speaking. |
|
I think she's coming to see us when we play. |
|
And every time we meet |
|
I've got nothing to say. |
|
She probably thinks |
|
I'm cute, she maybe thinks |
|
I'm gay. She's probably got a boyfriend anyway. |
