In The Eye Of The Beholder

9. Stay For One More...

I'm too idealistic and you're magic, you're mystic,

There was a train but I'm sorry, I missed it,

You baited and fished it, and the truth is I wished it,

I dreamt that I kissed it,

It's kinda realistic, cause we both overdrink it,

But I over-think it...

Good loving I bring it,

Get jealous – ballistic,

But you haven't seen it, a chance to redeem it,

You better believe it, I'm ready to retrieve:

All my wishes and dreams - I'm a drop in the ocean,

I'm coasting and floating, 

See you show-boating,

No secret I'm hoping, that you'll keep me sloping,

Target set and scoping-

You and me a slow thing-

You and me a close thing-

You can be my trophy, to stop me drinking slowly,

Drunk at karaoke, dreaming that you blow me,

And I'm the one and only but you don't really know me, so it's back to drinking slowly,

Lowkey, smoky, do the hokey-kokey,

Anything, you know me,

I'm just drunk and lonely so I think that we cosy,

Parallels are homely, so watch us very closely...

There's fuel for this fire so we can burn brighter,

I should have checked the time to be at the station tighter,

Next time I'll make sure that I drink the igniter,

Cos I've sussed you – deciphered,

In the eye of the sniper...

Is the drunk lonely writer...

Whose future gets lighter,

And the goalposts get wider, as we drink fruity cider,

So stay for a while,

Stay for one more,

Stay for a while,

Stay for one more...
