I met you at the airport,
when my hair was still short
Now it's growing longer,
as I'm growing fonder
Of the things that you said,
that got you into my bed
Now it's February,
and I am still weary
When you left on Christmas,
for another missus
I headed to a nip or two,
hating the city more than I hate
you standing at the gate,
trying to force fate
Now I'm at an airport,
I think I cut my hair short
I thought it was temporary
but then you were
Very affectionate and passionate
Oh how I was misled
I should have let you pay
the plane ticket
Should have played the game
But it was getting warmer
Warm enough to sit outside
Are you not pretty in the sun?
I said I'm not gonna run
But it just begun
Will that shine your shortcomings?
Should have been run
Now it's a hot, hot summer
and I'm cool, cool, cool
You won't be getting anything
And I won't add a dent just for you
You talk about the sea
How it would bother you and me
I know just what I get,
and by dawn I will regret
Now it's a hard, hard supper,
and I'm cool, cool, cool
You won't be getting anything,
and I will not attach a string
And if you talk about the sea,
how alone are you and me?
I know just what I get,
and by dawn I will regret
I know just what I get
Headlights on, down the street
in pursuit of happiness
All the haunting loneliness,
used my hope, knew the dress
Just being pieces of my heart,
hold them tight, don't fall apart
As I do remember, it is soon September
I'll meet you in the city,
faces repossibility
I'll meet you in the park,
where we meet at the dark
Where we huddle and cluster,
love here is just faster
In the hours of despair,
isn't he charming?
Now it's a hot, hot summer
and I'm cool, cool, cool
You won't be getting anything
and I will not attach a string
When you talk about the sea,
how it will go to you and me
I know just what I get
and by dawn I will be wet
Now it's a hot, hot summer
and I'm cool, cool, cool
You won't be getting anything
and I will not attach a string
When you talk about the sea,
how would all of you and me?
I know just what I'll get,
and by dawn I will regret
I know just what I'll get
Now my hair is long, I guess I am strong
An independent, I'll make do and mend
I'll give a good 50 % plane
schedule at hand
But a hundred I'll demand,
let's not get this out of hand
I look at the sky,
see the planes passing by
Oh, I could be in one of them,
I could never leave again
I could write a travelogue,
but it would be a monologue
It was a hot, hot summer,
was cool, cool, cool
Still you were getting everything,
you really got on my skin
When I think about this,
see how we twisted, you and me
How could I forget it,
what you gave is what you get
It was a hot, hot summer,
I was cool, cool, cool
Still you were getting everything,
you really got on my skin
When I think about this,
see how we twisted, you and me
How could I forget it,
what you gave is what you get
It was a hot, hot summer,
I was cool, cool, cool
Still you were get ting everything,
you really got under my skin
When I think about you,
see how we crossed it, you and me
How could I forget,
what you gave is what you get
It was a hot, hot summer,
I was cool, cool, cool
Still you were getting everything,
you really got under my skin
When I think about you,
see how we crossed it, you and me
How could I forget,
what you gave is what you get
