i knew her when she was a secretary she always refused to get married she tried not to smile or meet your eyes she knew if she did you d start those lies i busted a sweat every day on the dock she sang to herself as she worked for the boss she d process words to the dance music station every stroke of her fingers an invitation she said first names only and one night stands forget the face i want the hands and i kept trying whisperin slow and special something eternal and something essential i don t give up but i ain t a stalker i guess i m just an easy talker she said first names only and one night stands forget the face i want the hands and i made sure that i held her gaze and i made sure she couldn t look away and i put aside all those tired old lies she read the truth see it in my eyes she said first names only and one night stands forget the face i want the hands  but only for you but only for you but only for you i wanna be there for you i wanna be there for you i wanna be there for you babe i wanna be there for you i wanna be for only you
