the scene: a bar, or anyplace a boy meets girl
(me: let me see if i can impress her)
(her: oh god, not another one)
(me: here goes... clears throat)
somehow
in the cosmic mix
in the heavens
your star was fixed
(me: i bet she's diggin this)
(her: ~yawn~)
brightly
shone its light
for me
(me: good, good)
(her: is he gonna
buy me a beer?)
constant
radiant
could it be?
(her: blinks)
the star was put there
just to see?
(me: i think i'm in)
you
are my light
my shining star
(her: trite)
you
becon to me
from afar
(her: passe
are you from hallmark?)
when i first saw
the light i knew
(me: she's hooked)
strong and perfect
bright and true
(me: she's mine!)
could only come
from such
as you
(me: score!)
(her: bleh)
wait baby! come back!
i'll do one about your tatoos!
(me: hmmm, what rhymes with "brutus"?)
