A One Night Band

ONE NIGHT BAND She was just going to be a one-night stand But I felt the sun when she held my hand And as the old story goes, then came three Because the woman had a way with me She knew just when to smile or summon sensitive tears All I can say is I never believed a one-night stand could last for years When I planned this date I never gave it much thought And the lady wasn’t one to be purchased, sold or to bebought No, she was of refinement born and slinky in form and shape And that’s when I learned that one-night stands are often difficult to escape I tipped a ten to the piano player as we exited the bar And the heat started before I put the heat on in the car The darkness clung as her ebony hair akin to a waterfall And the heat increased as we made it further down my apartment’s hall When we opened the door I swear I heard a symphonic and wondrous band And now twenty years later I remember it was supposed to be just a one-night stand © 2010.….free cee!
