lyrics

I figured it was probably just a matter of time before we crossed paths
I remember when I saw you a couple falls past
you look good, you matured fast
you still got them long legs, soft ass
my Mi Amor with them eyes like she grew up in Singapore
hair like a black sycamore
she was a leftie, sat in the next seat
reading Dostoyevsky with a nestea
sexy, it's kinda like how we first met
in front of the library on the third step
now we on the express, you looking best dressed
possessed by some "Crime and Punishment", I check breath
moving my eyes from your right to your left breast
I don't see a ring so I'm guessing that your ex left
you flip a page and ya name ricochets
off my tongue and you look up in a daze like..


-
complete disbelief, saw nothing but your teeth
as you made a leap and threw your arms around me
making a scene, everybody looking at us
she said 'lets leave we can walk and catch up'
so we left off the next stop,
I took her to this french pub it was the best spot
we got a table for two, good food a couple brews
and we spent the night talking bout the past, and about the blues
and time passed over wine glass,
divine chat, let me know where her mind was at
she had dreams similar to mine, sending me signals and signs
but they were the subliminal kind
she said 'I live around the way', I said 'I'll walk you there'
she got a place by the bay overlooking a pier
the student residence apartment, and what are the odds man
she at the same one I'm lodged in


so apparently she had moved in just a few weeks ago
and got a place on the top floor, I'm three below
she only here the summer season though
taking a couple of classes for the credit and then she's leaving yo
but she wanna see the city, so I'ma show her around
all of the places that I like to go down town
but not tonight cause I'm pretty fucking busy
and seeing you was enough I'm thinking fate is fucking with me
she laughed softly and said she would call me
'maybe after class we can stop and get coffee'
I'll be at home cause I got tomorrow off see
so when you're done I can meet you in the lobby
and we can pass time however you want to
paint the town redder than a telephone booth
took the elevator to my level, said the opposite of hello
then I got home and called my mellow
