Great Lengths |
Remember that New Year’s Eve |
We were frightened by a firework? |
You could not believe the fuss I made |
I should have laughed it off |
I should have left it lying |
I did not receive much sympathy |
Remember that we were poor |
Though so young as not to notice |
We could ill-afford to paint the town |
You had your father’s charm |
And thus your mother’s Volvo |
It wasn’t long before you drove me home |
It took until October |
To win you over |
Remember that New Year’s Eve |
We were frightened by a firework? |
When I’d watched you leave, the fuss I made |
I made myself calm down |
And I made myself a promise: |
I would not conceive of taking no for an answer |
Though you kept me guessing and your distance |
Were it not for my persistence |
We would never have been lovers |
You kept your distance and me guessing |
Finally acquiescing only after I’d discovered |
You kept the things I sent you |
The lengths I went to |
Great lengths… |
