Most pleasant surprise

I saw her for the first time

(Those cheeks) In weeks tonight

She said it felt like a year

Music to my ears

And I almost kissed her

 

Hold the horses

I almost lost it

 

But I didn’t

I can hold back

Because I’m a good girl

 

I’m just business

And I know that

There can be no “us” in this world

 

She asked if I liked Netflix

I stuttered when I said yes

For shame my brain is building a nest

She wanted to know

If I’d seen her favorite show

And I almost kissed her

Oh, the answer was “no”

 

She got into all the cute little details

I’d write a screenplay if it’d please her

I could just reach out and squeeze her

 

But I didn’t

I can hold back

Because I’m a good girl

 

I’m just business

And I know that

There can be no “us” in this world

So I can never

Kiss her

 

It would just take a second

And I’m stuck in panic

Because she’s so nonchalant

And I know that’s not how you pronounce it

But I’m trying to write a song here

What if I just told her I was q- can’t say that here

Can’t say that here

 

So I didn’t

I can hold back

Because I’m a good girl

Who just wants to kiss her

 

But I’m just business

And I know that

There can be no “us” in this world

I can never

Kiss her

Kiss her

Kiss her

I can never

 

Disappoint those beautiful eyes

So I just hugged her tight

And said goodnight

To my

Most pleasant surprise
