| «Clang, clang, clang» went the trolley
|
| «Ding, ding, ding» went the bell
|
| «Zing, zing, zing» went my heartstrings
|
| For the moment I saw him I fell
|
| «Chug, chug, chug» went the motor
|
| «Bump, bump, bump» went the brake
|
| «Thump, thump, thump» went my heartstrings
|
| When he smiled, I could feel the car shake
|
| He tipped his hat, and took a seat
|
| He said he hoped he hadn’t stepped upon my feet
|
| He asked my name I held my breath
|
| I couldn’t speak because he scared me half to death
|
| «Buzz, buzz, buzz» went the buzzer
|
| «Plop, plop, plop» went the wheels
|
| «Stop, stop, stop» went my heartstrings
|
| As he started to leave I took hold of his sleeve with my hand
|
| And as if it were planned
|
| He stayed on with me and it was grand
|
| Just to stand with his hand holding mine
|
| All the way to the end of the line |
