๐ Lyrics
I saw her once before; she didn't turn me on
One night she stopped to talk to pass the time
And then I saw her eyes; her softly smiling glow
We sat and talked all night at Byblos
She talked of feelings that I knew were true
I knew were true
She painted me a picture using every shade of blue
Every shade of blue
It was light with laughter at times it made me cry
And now I'll never know just why I didn't ever try to hold her
To squeeze her to kiss her all night long I never tried to please her
Then, soon she had to go
I sat there all alone
And thought of things she said
The whole day through
And then I realized
I never took the time
To find out where she lived
Or where to call
I thought that I would see her
The next night
Anticipating how I'd set myself right
Then, I went back to Byblos
I sat there and waited
Feeling just a little nervous
And a little frustrated
Then soon in she came looking just the same
Oo I could hardly wait to take her far from the game
Then a person came in to the club
That I had to speak to
I explained the situation to her
And I thought she understood
But I guess she thought I was leaving her around
Cause when I looked for her this is what I found
She was rapping with a real good friend of mine
He was happening I guess it was his time
I really couldn't blame him cause he was sad and lonely too
But just talking to her did me so much good I knew she'd do him good too
Then I went home and I got it on
Sat down to write these words when I was finally alone
And then about halfway through I wondered if someone knew
Where she was so I could give her a call
And I found out that she was right down the hall
Not too far away
But that's ok I'll just wait for the day when I can see her again
And spend some time
Time some time some time
One night she stopped to talk to pass the time
And then I saw her eyes; her softly smiling glow
We sat and talked all night at Byblos
She talked of feelings that I knew were true
I knew were true
She painted me a picture using every shade of blue
Every shade of blue
It was light with laughter at times it made me cry
And now I'll never know just why I didn't ever try to hold her
To squeeze her to kiss her all night long I never tried to please her
Then, soon she had to go
I sat there all alone
And thought of things she said
The whole day through
And then I realized
I never took the time
To find out where she lived
Or where to call
I thought that I would see her
The next night
Anticipating how I'd set myself right
Then, I went back to Byblos
I sat there and waited
Feeling just a little nervous
And a little frustrated
Then soon in she came looking just the same
Oo I could hardly wait to take her far from the game
Then a person came in to the club

And I thought she understood

And I found out that she was right down the hall
Not too far away
But that's ok I'll just wait for the day when I can see her again
And spend some time
Time some time some time
