Lyrics Second Glance - Patti LuPone

Second Glance

Love at first sight, my dear
Never got a second glance from me
'Cause I’m more at home alone
And I know why, my dear
At times a word is best denied a rhyme
How sweet the dream postponed
Oh, the cruel
Boys at school
Were exceptions that proved the fool
Was me
But as Love once exclaimed
I can’t really blame the flame
Not me
More heathen light, my dear
They say that youth is wasted on the young
But is age wasted on the old?
A kiss
Can be bliss
When it’s past the abyss
But then, I find all that beguiles
And all that’s worthwhile
Must end
(Spoken interlude)
Yeah, baby.
Hey, how you doin'?
You two together?
Well, you should be.
You look cute.
Hey Sammy, gimme somethin' up here.
I dunno, gimme a vodka,
I don’t care.
Yeah, yeah baby, yeah.
Ladies and gentlemen, Caleb Curtis.
You swing, motherfucker
(Song)
Love at first sight, my dear
Never got a second glance from me
'Cause I’m more at home alone
And I know why, my dear
At times a word is best denied a rhyme
For how sweet the dream postponed
The dream postponed
The dream
