《Byblos》歌词

[00:00:01] Byblos(LP Version) - Chicago

[00:00:20] I saw her once before she didn't turn me on

[00:00:26] One night she stopped to talk to pass the time

[00:00:33] And then I saw her eyes her softly smiling glow

[00:00:40] We sat and talked all night at Byblos

[00:00:48] She talked of feelings that I knew were true

[00:00:54] She painted me a picture using every shade of blue

[00:01:00] It was light with laughter

[00:01:03] At times it made me cry

[00:01:07] And now I'll never know just

[00:01:09] Why I didn't ever try to hold her

[00:01:17] To squeeze her

[00:01:20] To kiss her all night long

[00:01:23] I never tried to please her

[00:01:27] Then soon she had to go

[00:01:30] I sat there all alone

[00:01:34] And thought of things she said

[00:01:36] "The whole day through"

[00:01:41] And then I realized

[00:01:44] I never took the time

[00:01:47] To find out where she lived

[00:01:49] Or where to call

[00:01:54] I thought that I would see her

[00:01:56] The next night

[00:02:00] Anticipating how I'd set myself right

[00:02:07] Then I went back to Byblos

[00:02:10] I sat there and waited

[00:02:13] Feeling just a little nervous

[00:02:16] And a little frustrated

[00:02:20] Then soon in she came

[00:02:23] Looking just the same

[00:02:26] I could hardly wait to take her

[00:02:29] Far from that game

[00:02:56] Then a person came in to the club

[00:03:02] That I had to speak to

[00:03:08] I explained the situation to her

[00:03:15] And I thought she understood

[00:03:22] But I guess she thought that I was jiving her around

[00:03:28] 'Cause when I looked for her this is what I found

[00:03:34] She was rapping with a real good friend of mine

[00:03:42] He was happy oh it was his time

[00:03:49] I really couldn't blame him

[00:03:51] He was sad and lonely too

[00:03:56] But just talking to her did me so much good

[00:03:58] I knew she'd do him no good too

[00:04:03] Then I went home and I got it on

[00:04:08] Sat down to write these words when I was finally alone

[00:04:15] Then about halfway through

[00:04:17] I wondered if someone knew

[00:04:21] Where she was so I could give her a call

[00:04:24] And I found out that she was right down the hall

[00:04:32] Not too far away

[00:04:41] But that's ok I'll just wait for the day

[00:04:47] When I can see her again

[00:04:50] And spend some time
