The Slowdance - Lyrics - Farside

The Far Side is a single-panel comic created by Gary Larson and syndicated by Universal Press Syndicate, which ran from January 1, 1980, to January 1, 1995. Its surrealistic humor is often based on uncomfortable social situations, improbable events, an anthropomorphic view of the world, logical fallacies, impending bizarre disasters, references to proverbs, or the search for meaning in life. Larson's frequent use of animals and nature in the comic is popularly attributed to his background in biology. Reruns are still printed in many newspapers.

I walked home, you drove off. You probably slept more than i did. The monkey wrench inside my chest Told me not to run. From a stranger to a stranger: "why don't we talk a while? I've got nothing to lose But the chance to make you smile." Just be calm, just be cool, And i won't make any sudden moves. And while you wait I'll try to say a joke or two you haven't heard. From a stranger to a stranger: "we both could do much worse. So i hope that one of these nights You'll use that number in your purse Cuz lonliness is who i know. Perhaps he's someone you know, A mutual friend of ours." I'm a nerd, you're a queen. So how about a date? I didn't know you saw the show. I thought i saw you leave. From a stranger to a stranger: "i could use a ride back home." I could point out the stars And we won't have to sleep alone, alone. This lonliness is who i know. Perhaps he's someone you know. There's a million words That i've been saving for a rainy day, And a million tricks that i could use, And i'd use them all at once If that's what i have to do. I'll find a way to make you stay, At least until i find another reason, anyway. I haven't felt this way Since my first day of school. It's a wish for me to make history with you, with you. There's a million words I've been saving for a rainy day, And a million tricks that i could use, And i'd juse them all at once If that's what i have to do. I'd find a way to make you stay, Least till i find another reason, anyway. Until i find another reason. (2x) I'd find a way to make you stay Until i find another reason. (3x)
