Story behind the song
The minute I wrote it I knew that I would enlist/beg/plead Joe to play the Hofner bass on it, which he did a fab job on. Regrettably this poor song has had it's share of delays due to computer and technical problems. I think it survived with it's pre-1967 Beatle influences intact.
Lyrics
1. I assure you, you never showed any surprise
When our hearts met and stared into each others eyes
Searched out every day of our lives
Oh Hello! - Welcome into my life!
Love can be so ironic
Im not the boy that youd choose
A girl like you is so hard to find
And so easy to lose
2. Temporary situation, solidified so quick
You were at my place being ugly sick
Sometimes I think that you might have lost a bet
And I still love you in your sweats
3. I know its a contradiction, celebrated in song
If love I so common why does it rarely come along?
When we are waiting, what are two to do?
Because for me I was only waiting for you
4. I admit that you were a little tiffed
When you caught me and that girl in a kiss
I did my best to make it up to you
I thought for a moment we were through
