Half a Song

The band was startin' Slow Hand

'Bout the time you walked in

I could see it in your eyes

You were heart broke and needin' a friend

The singer started singin' as I let you have my bar stool

And before that first chorus was through

You were already smilin'

I said no use in tryin'

To open up a tab, oh girl, I'm gladly buyin'

Ain't it funny thinkin' you were thinkin' you'd be drinkin' alone?

Baby, ain't it crazy what can happen in half a song?

The second verse started

I asked you if you'd like to dance

When you said, "No", I figured, "Well, there goes my chance"

But the singer kept on singin'

And before he hit that chorus again

I felt you grab my hand

Then we bee-lined to the floor like we'd done this before

Holdin' onto you one, two, three, four

Spinnin' and a-gettin' in a rhythm, girl, it didn't take long

Baby, ain't it crazy what can happen in half a song?

♪

When that song ended, they said we've only got one more

Now we're half way through it and we're still out here on the floor

I wonder what you're thinkin' 'cause I think I'd like to drive you home

But I know that's probably never gonna happen

I'll just settle for your number on a napkin

Then again you never know what could happen in half a song
