about

song written for Mrs. Punish

lyrics

Betty can you hear me calling your name
Your phone keeps ringing for you I'm insane
You turn my head with your hippy hippy shake
I gotta get rid of this heartache

Cause I find it hard to breath
When you're around it makes me believe
I got a chance with you
What the heck I am suppose to do

Backward and forward its' two for the show
Three to get ready I got nowhere to go
Take 2 steps forward and do it some more
Till your heart beats on my door

You get me with your tease come hither I know
I've always been the kind who stays in control
I'm falling backforwards I can't seem to think
Your pink dress makes my heart sink

That walk with smile on your face
Your the girl I can't touch I'm out of
Place can you send me a sign
Come on girl I wanna make you mine

Backward and forward its' two for the show
Three to get ready I got nowhere to go
I take 2 steps forward and do it some more
Till your heart beats on my door

Can't you see it's raining out here
You know I hate the cold I fear
That if our love can't make it shine
I'll go back to the future and get lost in.....TIME

You say...

If I show you something will you give me a kiss
Are you kidding Betty gotcha your kiss on my list
We sang and sang I want to know what love is
And showed me the way those little kids

Betty I can see the wink in your eye
Now check me out I'm not a real shy guy
It's time you should know that my love is all true
Tonite oh BABY I love you

It took me forever to write your song
Could never find the words always seemed to be wrong
But I took 2 steps forward and tried it again
What I found was my best friend

Backward and forward its time for the show
Three to get ready we got somewhere to go
Take 2 steps forward you know its' true
Tonite oh BABY I love you

Tonite oh Betty I love you
I love you
