We said we would meet almost an hour ago,
Now I am almost worked in to a worry.
Time is getting late to make the show.
My mind numb and now my vision blurry.
Three cups of coffee to pass the time,
And I am now getting the shakes .
My heart longs to make you all mine,
Your thought is really all that it takes.
But now of you, there is no sign,
And our show is about to begin.
So I give up and get into line,
I guess that I am stood up again.
Then in a moment, you ease my fear,
My beauty alas, she is finally here!
