Connor Storms & His Bouquet - Bettie Lyrics

Bettie I fixed the phone upon your desk
Tell me, Bettie, why haven't you used it yet?
I'm out in the street fixing all the lines
Hoping one will carry your voice tonight
Could you be loved?
Could you call me up some time?

Bettie with her dress of emerald green
Oh, how I think of her
Do you think she thinks of me
When she's walking home
When she's turning out her light
When she's looking out the window into the sky?
Careful, Bettie, you'll miss me
Looking up that high

It's a long, long road
It's a thin, thin line
I've heard it once
I've heard it a million times
I don't know what's ahead
But I know one thing that's true
My heart beats fast whenever I think of you

Bettie I put on my favorite shirt
Left twenty minutes ago
So I would get there first
Here she comes
Here she comes
Walking slow
Steady steps
Bright and green smiling eyes
I'll play it over and over in my head
The rest of my life
Bettie it was lovely
Let's go again some time

Here she comes
Here she comes
