My Amberito

Words by Bryon Bowers

I’d never met someone strange like me mind mangled up A tangent tree Exploring Hands Of undiscovered Wondrous Lands Up your mind Hills And Down to your Valley You randomly called me Jack I called you Sally from the back [Chorus] You Said “Meet me at the ice machine” “Promptly Simply at 3” “Snickers are a Dollar” “But Kisses are free” “Only stipulation be” “You gotta buy ‘em” “only from me” Felt your heart was pounding Fervent in my hand I could feel your lungs Fill up and slowly expand Moonlight Edges Your body smiling in the Dark Our bodies shaking in the Wind [Chorus] You Said “Meet me at the ice machine” “Promptly Simply at 3” “Snickers are a Dollar” “But Kisses are free” “Only stipulation be” “You gotta buy ‘em” “only from me” Every dark corner our secret place of worship Two super magnets colliding Bodies locked Our Minds interlinked Occasionally breathing Falling deep into you [Chorus] You Said “Meet me at the ice machine” “Promptly Simply at 3” “Snickers are a Dollar” “But Kisses are free” “Only stipulation be” “You gotta buy ‘em” “only from me” When we had to part I kissed you goodbye You looked at me And started to cry I said “I’ll write you and I’ll call you” “It’s not our last goodbye” [Chorus] You Said “Meet me at the ice machine” “Promptly Simply at 3” “Snickers are a Dollar” “But Kisses are free” “Only stipulation be” “You gotta buy ‘em” “only from me” Wrote you letters You wrote me back Called you Sally You called me Jack Hearts on Letters Your kisses too Same old story You met somebody new and so did I I guess it really was our last goodbye [Chorus] You Said “Meet me at the ice machine” “Promptly Simply at 3” “Snickers are a Dollar” “But Kisses are free” “Only stipulation be” “You gotta buy ‘em” “only from me” [Fade out]
