Wanting to take me anywhere I wanna go, in his car
However near, however far
He brings me flowers, He wants to take me for a ride
He doesn’t want me to leave his side
My new one, who calls me in the middle of the night
Wanting to hear my sweet voice once more,
The way HE did, in the dark, without any light
My new one, so tall and handsome as a movie star, so sweet and loving
Wanting to spoil me, to make me His own
Take me to those fancy restaurants, linen tablecloths,
Sweet wine that will make me tell the truth
Which one of us are only out on a “loan”
My new one, who kisses my eyes and will never see me cry
He wants me to smile, always asking why
I keep that little black book
Wanting to take a look
He takes me to the desert, he takes me through the scenic routes
All I want is to be near the ocean with someone else
The One who took me to the diner with the paper napkins
The One who took me to the ocean,
The One who took me on the bus and the train
The One who made love to under the full moon one cold bitter night
The One who made love to me in the rain
The One who I never had to drink sweet wine to tell the truth
Who kissed my eyes and face when it was wet with tears
I knew this ONE for many years
Let me go back to my room and out of your sight
Say Good-bye and not Good-night.
