Lirama

You came in from the cold and asked me to dance - I knew,
That my lucky stars were hoping I'd say “I do”
So there you stood and something told me that I should (2x)

But the look in your eyes was a bit too bright - I said “no.”
Maybe the melting snow on your deep black hair made me go?
So there you stood and something made me walk away (2x)

Was the dj so bad that I went nearly mad? - I don't know
He should have played something old, something melancholy and slow
So there you stood and something made me walk away
Away I went yet something told me to stay

It would've been a beautiful day to heed your call
It would've been a wonderful scene to watch the snow fall

Then the summer came, we met on the street - too soon
You seized my hand and asked if I didn't like you
So there you stood and something told me that I should (2x)

But my laundry was due and the heat wave was intense too
So I went kinda speechless and absent-minded 'bout you
So there you stood and something made me walk away
Away I went yet something told me to stay

It would've been like a love song to walk hand in hand
It would've been a carpe diem to carve hearts in the sand

So now I dance on my own and wander about - so blue
I keep passing my days by hoping that I'd see you
So I could wait if something made me walk away
So I could wait if something told me I should stay
