[00:19.80] I saw her once before she didn't turn me on
[00:26.12]
[00:26.64] One night she stopped to talk to pass the time
[00:33.44] And then I saw her eyes her softly smiling glow
[00:39.75]
[00:40.38] We sat and talked all night at byblos
[00:47.16]
[00:47.74] She talked of feelings that I knew were true
[00:51.24]
[00:54.01] She painted me a picture using every shade of blue
[00:59.08]
[01:00.12] It was light with laughter at times it made me cry
[01:05.75]
[01:06.89] And now I'll never know just why I didn't ever try to hold her
[01:14.84]
[01:17.21] To squeeze never her to kiss her I never tried to please her
[01:26.46]
[01:27.10] Then soon she had to go
[01:29.77]
[01:30.44] I sat there all alone
[01:33.29]
[01:33.81] And thought of things she said
[01:36.16] The whole day through
[01:40.58]
[01:41.17] And then I realized
[01:43.18]
[01:43.93] I never took the time
[01:47.38] To find out where she lived
[01:49.47] Or where to call
[01:53.92]
[01:54.49] I thought that I would see her
[01:56.79] The next night
[01:58.03]
[02:00.67] Anticipating how I'd set myself right
[02:05.74]
[02:06.65] Then I went back to byblos
[02:09.52]
[02:10.25] I sat there and waited
[02:12.92]
[02:13.55] Feeling just a little nervous
[02:16.11] And a little frustrated
[02:17.64]
[02:19.75] Then soon in she came looking just the same
[02:25.53]
[02:26.91] I could hardly wait to take her far from that game
[02:33.39]
[02:55.96] Then a person came in to the club
[02:59.83]
[03:02.46] That I had to speak to
[03:06.65]
[03:08.59] I explained the situation to her
[03:14.19]
[03:14.99] And I thought she understood
[03:18.74]
[03:22.28] But I guess she thought that I was jiving her around
[03:27.01]
[03:27.94] 'Cause when I looked for her this is what I found
[03:33.54]
[03:34.51] She was rapping with a real good friend of mine
[03:40.06]
[03:42.44] He was happy oh it was his time
[03:47.09]
[03:48.73] I really couldn't blame him
[03:50.85] He was sad and lonely too
[03:54.04]
[03:55.77] But just talking to her did me so much good
[03:58.56] I knew she'd do him no good too
[04:01.18]
[04:02.77] Then I went home and I got it on
[04:08.50]
[04:09.06] Sat down to write these words when I was finally alone
[04:15.01] Then about halfway through I wondered if someone knew
[04:20.20]
[04:21.32] Where she was so I could give her a call
[04:23.84] And I found out that she was right down the hall
[04:30.42]
[04:32.58] Not too far away
[04:34.06]
[04:40.77] But that's ok I'll just wait for the day
[04:47.52] When I can see her again
[04:50.01] And spend some time time
