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… |
