[00:07.07] I don't care for tights, she says
[00:10.77] and does not tell me why
[00:14.42] She hikes her skirt above her knee
[00:18.00] revealing one brown thigh
[00:21.89] I see, I say, and wonder at
[00:25.48] her slender little fingers
[00:28.98] How cleverly they pull upon
[00:32.62] the threads of recent slumbers
[02:28.06][01:27.64][00:36.52] Do you know where friendship ends
[02:31.58][01:31.29][00:40.16] and passion does begin?
[00:43.66] It's between the binding of
[00:47.37] her stockings and her skin.
[00:57.69] She stayed up so late I thought
[01:01.84] she'd ask me to go dance
[01:05.58] But something in the way she laughed
[01:09.15] told me I had no chance
[01:13.04] The fiction in her family
[01:15.73] was that she was never nice
[01:20.20] I'd say she was very
[01:23.10] I just did not see the price
[01:34.95] When the gin and tonic
[01:38.12] makes the room begin to spin.
[01:58.32] There may be attraction here
[02:02.25] but it will never flower
[02:05.78] So I'm assigned to read her mind, now
[02:09.72] in this witching hour
[02:13.28] Here's no game for those who claim
[02:16.91] to be easily bruised
[02:20.33] But how can I complain
[02:23.49] when she's so easily amused?
[02:35.22] When she does not show you
[02:38.44] the way out on the way in
[02:42.89] It's between the binding
[02:46.13] of her stockings and her skin.
