lyrics

The waitress

The moment she came in I knew that I was insane
the beauty of her smile just hypnotized me
she got me by surprise, looking straight into my eyes
when she came to me and asked me what I'd like to drink

I said I hope that you don't mind,
if I would only like just a little drop of that water
the water that's inside the holy deep blue sea
that's making your bright eyes so beautiful, so beautiful
that I just can't stand, oh no I just can't stand,
no I just can?t stand to look inside

The moment when she smiled after hearing what I've said
I was captured and delivered to that girl
She left me standing there, here sweet smell still in the air
But I couldn't catch her face again that night
now I just can't stand, no I just can't stand,
you know I just can't stand to be alone now

The moment I touched the phone, the number she wrote on
The paper that's inside my pocket, my heart was running wild
I dialed the number right and what I heard was sweeter
than white chocolate
And I just can't stand, no I just can't stand,
no I just can't stand to hear her voice

The moment she opened the door, I was standing out on the floor
My knees where shaking and my blood went hot
She looked at me with that smile and all she said was Hi,
how you're doing after all this time, you know I just can't stand,
she said I just can't stand, you know I just can?t stand
to be without you anymore

and then we locked doo doo doodedoo doo,
the door doo doo doodedoo doo

and then I got to drink doo de doo doo
just a little drop doo de doo doo
of that water doo doo doode doo doo
the water that's inside
that holy deep blue sea,
that's making her bright eyes so beautiful
so beautiful, so beautiful...
