Lyrics
I got to the party and grabbed a martini
I didn't spot anyone that I know
So I stand here
I take a little sip
Eat an olive
By myself
How can I be such a socially awkward individual who drinks here alone?
I down the martini and spot in the corner
A very interesting face looking my way
He sees me!
I feel the blood rush up to my forehead
What the hell?
How can it be what I feel in a heartbeat makes the rest of life seem totally banal?
Well I wonder what happened to all of my reason?
I'm desperate to hear his voice, get to meet him
Our eyes lock!
My heart it just shoots up to the ceiling
I am floored
How can I get to meet my Mr Right or maybe this is how the story will end?
How can it be what I feel in a heartbeat makes the rest of life seem totally banal?
How can I be such a socially awkward individual who drinks here alone?
