I was on the subway and there was a girl sitting across from me and she was wearing this dress that was bottoned queer up right to here, she was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.
And I was shy then, so when she would look at me I would look away, then afterwards when I would look back she would look away.

That was 30 years ago and I don't think that theres a day that goes by that I don't think about her, I don't want that to happen again.
