Can I Get a Coward on the Rocks, Please?
by Elizabeth SeagoHe tried.
He tried so hard
And she let those big blues pass her by.
She froze up, and although her friends can attest-
She isn't quite shy...
She couldn't breathe all too well,
And she knows, oh she knows.
She always had a tendency to back out
Ontop of that big ol' water slide. 07/29/2008 Posted on 07/29/2008
