Chicago - Byblos lyrics

I saw her once before; she didn't turn me on. One night she stopped to talk to pa** the time. And then i saw her eyes; her softly smiling glow, We sat and talked all night at byblos. She talked of feelings that i knew were true. She painted me a picture using every shade of blue It was light with laughter, at times it made me cry, And now i'll never know just why i didn't ever try to hold her; To squeeze her; to kiss her all night long, i never tried to please her. Then, soon she had to go; I sat there all alone And thought of things she said The whole day through. And then i realized, I never took the time To find out where she lived Or where to call. I thought that i would see her The next night, Anticipating how i'd set myself right. Then, i went back to byblos; I sat there and waited, Feeling just a little nervous And a little frustrated. Then, soon, in she came, looking just the same Oo, i could hardly wait to take her far from the game. Then a person came in to the club That i had to speak to I explained the situation to her And i thought she understood But i guess she thought i was jiving her around Cause when i looked for her, this is what i found She was rapping with a real good friend of mine, He was happening, i guess it was his time. I really couldn't blame him, cause he was sad and lonely too. But just talking to her did me so much good, i knew she'd do him good too. Then i went home and i got it on, Sat down to write these words when i was finally alone. And then, about halfway through i wondered if someone knew Where she was, so i could give her a call, And i found out that she was right down the hall, Not too far away, But that's ok, i'll just wait for the day when i can see her again And spend some time.
