No Myth

So, she says it's time she goes
But wanted to be sure I know
She hopes we can be friends
I think, yeah, I guess we can say I
But didn't think to ask her why
She blocked her eyes & drew the curtains
With knots I've got yet to untie

*CHORUS*
What if I were romeo in black jeans
What if I was Heathcliff, it's no myth
Maybe she's just looking for
Someone to dance with

See, it was just too soon to tell
And looking for some parallel
Can be an endless game
We said goodbye before hello
My secrets she will never know
And if I dig a hole to China
I'll catch the first junk to Soho

*Repeat CHORUS*

Sometime from now you'll bow to
pressure
Some things in life you cannot
measure by degrees
I'm between the poles & the
Equator
Don't send no private investigator to
Find me please
'Less he speaks Chinese
And can dance like Astaire overseas

*Repeat CHORUS*

-Michael Penn 1989-
(Yes, brother of THAT Penn!)

A GREAT timeless song I NEVER tire of.
