A Lovely Night

The sun is nearly gone

The lights are turning on

A silver shine that stretches to the sea

We've stumbled on a view

That's tailor-made for two

What a shame those two are you and me

Some other girl and guy

Would love this swirling sky

But there's only you and I

And we've got no shot

This could never be

You're not the type for me

Really?

And there's not a spark in sight

What a waste of a lovely night

You say there's nothing here?

Well, let's make something clear

I think I'll be the one to make that call

But you'll call?

And though you looked so cute

In your polyester suit

It's wool

You're right, I'd never fall for you at all

And maybe this appeals

To someone not in heels

Or to any girl who feels

There's some chance for romance

But, I'm frankly feeling nothing

Is that so?

Or it could be less than nothing?

Good to know

So you agree?

That's right!

What a waste of a lovely night
