At First Glance
Dancing at the disco I espy the woman of my dreams
Wearing a lavender basque top and painted on jeans
Her smile is so dazzling there is nothing to compare
I can’t help feeling I know her from somewhere
Oh gosh now I remember she works at the local nick
She stopped me once for speeding but my smile it did the trick
I will just amble over and say ‘hello hello hello’
I’m having palpitations my heart is beating so
Would you like a little dinner, I've got some soup on my tie
I'd like to say I'm always serious but that would be a lie
I can dance like John Travolta and you're my kind of girl
Test my boasting on the dance floor as I give you a twirl
You talk and I will listen and learn the story of you
I'll be truly fascinated to know of all you say and do
Though I think you're lovely its not looks that attract
I was drawn to you by destiny and knew I had to act.
That’s a novel chat up line I really like a witty guy
I couldn’t help but notice you; your dancing caught my eye
The last time I saw dancing like that was my dear old dad
But one look at your perfect tush I think your not half bad
Lets sit down together and you can buy me a glass of wine
I like your deep brown eyes; I think we’ll get on fine
Gosh with all this talking I forgot to say I’m Kim
I’m separated from my husband I want to forget him
Ha Ha cheeky monkey, do you usually dance around a pole
Lets see if you're so cocky dancing to a little rock and roll
Wolf down that glass of wine and let me put you through your paces
Because I think your ex is over there pulling funny faces
But I can tell from your demeanour that you're really over him
My first name is Tommy and I'm pleased to meet you Kim
Wow, you can really dance girl, you can boogie with the best
Are you up for a little jiving or do you need a rest ?
I sure can dance and have some fun
But I will admit I’m a working mum
My husband left me for his ‘latest one’
I’m divorcing him and looking for some fun
I’m happy to meet you for a meal
Lets get to know each other –that’s the deal
Here’s my mobile number – I’m free tomorrow
But let me make it clear let’s take this nice and slow
You must be so proud of being a working mum
Raising a child these days must cost a tidy sum
There will be no rush and I will earn your trust
I consider your ex a man but I'm afraid only just
For men who betray give all men a bad name
I promise you Kim, men are not all the same
Thanks for your number and I promise I'll ring
One day at a time and see what tomorrow might bring.
