"Hey"
"Hi"
Oh don't kid yourself
You were just one of among the many
that was talking to that day
The game I already knew of so well
The more you catch, the more you may devour
A different set of faces day after day
No, I do not know your names
I do appreciate the right swipe and the few taps on your phone
It tells me I'm pretty and you wish to have me
Guess what? you absolutely can
And for as long as you'd like baby
"How are you doing?"
One word reply and you're out
Say more and sound the horns,
A new game has just begun
All I ask is for your quick reply
"Who am I?"
Oh sure, I love talking about myself
"How about you?"
Nope I don't really care.
I just need a reason to pass the time
You see, I'm bored out of my life
And we could all use some harmless fun right?
Let's not stick to the basics
Who really cares about those?
I can tell you all the most random things
And you'll laugh at my ever so witty commentary
Here we go again.
The rules are
No expectations, no strings attached
Let's see where this leads
Before you decide our time is up
When I have you in my arms
I'll write up our love story
How I'm this free spirit you see in the movies who's definitely one of a kind
Oh you'll fall in love with me
And i will say how lucky i am to have finally found you, sweet thing
It will be magic
Didn't you already see the signs?
What were the odds of us meeting?
