Telescope

I knew it when I saw her

those tight blue jeans

and a red lipped smile

She didn’t know what I knew then

Between us was a million miles

I’m fixing up my dad’s old speeder

When it runs real good I’ll be heading her way

Maybe she’ll like it, maybe she won’t

But either way I’ll say

“What right did you have

to blow up my world

by looking so good tonight?”

I’ll tip my hat, buy her a drink

Beneath the stars so bright

I hope she knows

my telescope

always finds its way to her

I hope she knows

I hope she’ll be

my ma’am and I her sir
