Make It Nine

You're neither sick nor lame? Yet on our first meeting, you're late? I came so early today, I didn't expect you to delay. You made me sit and wait like a stray dog, Till the entire space got filled with the city fog. Night came,stars shone,the moon lit, I waited,like I was caught in traffic in a fleet When I say be here on time, I mean exactly that time, If it is nine, and you're mine, Make it nine, Or you will pay a fine; That no silver or gold is worth, Because the cold out here could be worse.
