a la mode

in the wee wee hours of the morning
sitting in a diner with you
and we are drink drink drinking some coffee
hoping one of us will soon be coming to
you got a smile on you that's contagious
somebody oughta bottle all that charm
the way the time flies by is outrageous
you are the snooze button on life's alarm

i just wanna hold you down
and stay for awhile

you order a burger and a diet pepsi
and i'm watching you stuff that pretty face
nobody's ever looked so damn sexy
with ketchup and mustard on his face
you got a body like an adonis
or a greek god from ancient myth
and i'll tell you right now babe - to be honest
there's no else in the world i'd rather be with

than sitting here with you
just wanna stay for awhile

it doesn't have to be love
i'm starting to think love is overrated
but we have a florescent light diner romance
and i know for a fact those are understated
so let's order up a slice of that apple pie
a la mode
and toast to things that we already got baby
not things we lost alongside the road

in the wee wee hours of the morning
sitting in a diner with you

Mr. Cortez, you should come to perform in Memphis!! You'd have such a big crowd :] (You can even stay in my dorm if you dress up like a girl...)Your music makes my brain calm down. :]
