The Marbles

Where have you been before?
I see now how I overlooked you
Now that I found you, I won’t ever lose you again
Come on over here, let’s dance, all in the best way
 
Let’s talk informally from now on
What about we make clear what this love stands for?
Neither will your playing coy nor bratty behavior
Work on me, you’re doomed
 
Play the spoons1, my boy’s coming
He’s approaching me slowly but surely
C’mon and play a game of marbles2 with me
Let’s have the folks watch us from over there
 
Play the spoons, my boy’s coming
He’s approaching me slowly but surely
C’mon and play a game of marbles with me
Let’s have the folks watch us from over there

He’s approaching me slowly but surely
C’mon and play a game of marbles with me
Let’s have the folks watch us from over there
 
Play the spoons, my boy’s coming
He’s approaching me slowly but surely
C’mon and play a game of marbles with me
Let’s have the folks watch us from over there
