Electric urban night
En route to the site
Every detail just right
I'm smooth like that
...
There they go
Look at the show
Climbing into the heavens
All lucky sevens
...
I sit in the park, waiting
Patience slowly fading
Nerves start grating
Almost begin praying
...
Darling, do you remember that year's autumn leaves?
Perhaps it was your aura, but they were the prettiest and keenest I've ever seen
Strolling through the park, hand in hand, the foliage crunched lightly under our feet
Such a simple, yet transcendent, treat
...
This is our maiden voyage
A journey to the stars
You, I and the vast ocean blue
Forecast: smooth sailing as far as the eye can see
...
My dear chap, what a pleasure to see you again!
Sit down, sit down, make yourself comfortable
Some sherry?
I still have those cigars you liked so...
...
She's the first thing I see when I wake
She's the last thing I see when I go to sleep
...
Poor little rich girl
Life was a whirl
One giant swirl
Continuous twirl
...
Lying in bed, tossing and turning
A sudden knot in your chest alters your breathing
Body permeates with an all-too-familiar burning
Much ado about nothing, your “learning”
...
I told her my new nickname for her would be Peaches
She kindly told me to shove it
...
Oh, girl, don't lie
No point even tryin'
You're not fooling anyone, especially me
Ms. Sad Eyes
...
Lullaby blues
Baby needs new shoes
Credit card company sues
Wondering if what the doc said is true
...
The girl was bad news
The kind that gives men the blues
The type that really turns the screws
Body of Aphrodite
...
By hook or by crook
That’s how I took
The heavens were shook
Just by my look
...
Smooth Like That
Electric urban night
En route to the site
Every detail just right
I'm smooth like that
Smoky haze
Still I meet her gaze
I advance, unfazed
I'm smooth like that
I sidle up
Throw a witty remark
Hitting the mark, igniting a spark
I'm smooth like that
Our friends disperse
Leaving us immersed
I catch her tumbling purse
I'm smooth like that
"Seeing anyone? "
"No, " she replies, "still looking for The One."
"Ain't it tough in this town? "
I'm smooth like that
Crowded bar
Counter too far
I navigate through like a star
I'm smooth like that
Hand her her drink
Some concoction in pink
I tease her and wink
I'm smooth like that
Getting bolder
I playfully touch her shoulder
She begins to smolder
I'm smooth like that
Now's my chance
I pull her to dance
She's soon in a trance
I'm smooth like that
I walk her home
A stone's throw from the Dome
On the spot I conjure a poem
I'm smooth like that
Invited in
Tempted to sin
Yet thoughts spin
Is this really a win?
I politely refuse
Not right with all that booze
But don't sing the blues
"How ‘bout lunch tomorrow at two? "
She knows I'm smooth like that
