Through To You

He's been trying for so long he's lost all track of time
Inviting her to extensive conversation, expensive food and wine
Planning secret rendezvous but he's the only one that there
He knows one day he'll get his chance, he knows one day she'll care

Writing letters, expressing his obsession
Defining his insatiable appetite
He says she is like a flower in the garden
But she's better described as aconite

(s)He says what do I have to do to get through to you
Nothing I ever say affects you in any way
It's all a mistake please don't cause me more heartache

She's been avoiding him so long, it's been so many weeks
Turning down or totally ignoring invitations to speak
Any time any where it seems he's always there
She knows one day he'll forget about her she knows with no despair

She thinks this only happens in the movies
Her favorite chair and she's setting a letter down
Long hard day as she slips out of her stockings
And thinks about him with a little frown

Chorus

Then they talk it over and get together one day
Everything is changing but it remains the same
He still has the hunger; she still has her long days
He hasn't had the time yet you can still hear them say,
What do I have to do to get through to you!
