Please Be Mine

I see you once a year
It’s like you disappear
I wish you were here
With me, dear

On East Pine Street
We were getting something to eat
Our parents were laughing
While we were chatting

And next time I visit you I’ll say:

Please be mine
At this time
I don’t wanna wait
Will you go out on a date?

It is really late at night
I am still trying to write
How about we wait?
I need to postpone this date

I’m an hour behind
And you’re an hour ahead
There’s been so many things that
Have been unsaid

It’s twelve twenty four
We’re headed out the door
Our parents are laughing
While we are chatting

And right out the door I’ll say:

Please be mine
At this time
I don’t wanna wait
Will you go out on a date?

I wrote this song for you
So you’ll know that it is true
I am waiting at this time
Will you please be mine?
