lyrics

25th Blind Date On The High Road

I tried hard to write another letter
the words I thought that she might want to hear
cause you see it's tough 'cause I haven't even met her
she might not want to if I don't make myself perfectly clear

(Chorus)
'cause in 25 days I'll be running away to meet my 25th blind date on the high road
and if I don't make myself a fool you can bet I'll be holding more than just my cool
Someone's gonna take me home

I don't need her number just her picture
and her address typed clearly on the back
if I would type would that offend her?
because my handwriting might put her right off track

(chorus)
maybe I shouldn't write her at all and call my 25th blind date on the high road
but I can't stand them bloody phones she might wind up telling me where to go

(Bridge)
the letter she wrote sounds really nice she mentioned she couldn't wait or my reply
I've got to think of something good soon and I think I know exactly what to do

I have a friend who's a fancy renaissance poet
he digs my news he agreed to help me out
but she'll find out sooner or later I'm no poet
I'll just pray she understands what I'm all about

(Chorus)

Bandcamp generously sends 85% of your support directly toward my humble living expenses.

This is the only place you will find all of my albums. I have most of them on YouTube Music (Topic Channel) and Spotify now as well. However, music is not free to produce and neither is rent and groceries.

For best audio results, download music at minimum 320 MP3. WAV is best. Thanks 🙏 ... more
