I FELL
We were at her great aunt's wedding
She had a hard case sense of humour and long brown hair
We did some dishes the next day
We were fighting with the tea towel
She was skiting 'bout her boyfriend and how good she was at kissing
and that stuff
We had a swim in the river
And her eyes were so deep and her body was so sleek
I fell right in
I could show her how to splash fight in the swiftly flowing water
And I didn't think I ought to do much else
And she told me 'bout her dancing and her troubles with her parents
And she flirted something cronic and looked amazing
So one more swim in the river
And the day was so hot and I asked her for a kiss
That's what I got
I fell right in to those lovely hazel eyes
I fell right in much to my surprise
So it's later on that day-we dropped her off at her place
And we stopped a while and chatted and drank tea
And she showed me her room-then she took me out the back
Down the garden pathway to the creek
And we looked down at the water
It was so clear and so quiet
And I asked her for a kiss-that's what I got
It was soon time to leave- we had to drive back to Auckland
So we said all our goodbyes and drove away
But it was great meeting Mary
She made me feel so fine
If only we'd had more time, well never mind.
