It's so nice to see you
Can we sit and talk for a while
I have searched forever
I can't imagine anything better

Kids up on the stairway
Couples on the sidewalk squares
If I get to your heart soon
I'll call a perfect afternoon

(chorus)
Won't you call my number
Don't push, but don't hesitate
Wake me from this slumber
Rush me, but leave time to wait

Checkmate on my shoulder
I'm tired of this win or lose
Well I'm no knight in shining armor
But I'm no pair of dancin' shoes
I'm no pair of dancin' shoes

My patience ran away
Take me with you
You keep me holding on
Nothing's understood
You're so confusing
Tell it to me straight

(chorus)

Rush me, but leave time to wait.

I got nothin' left to lose
But I'm no pair of dancin' shoes (x4)
