Lyrics

On blind dates
You meet in corners
You take a jump into the unknown
They're classified, they're top secret
An antidote to being on your own

You're standing waiting
You're hesitating
You're thinking maybe...well
I don't know
Your nerve is breaking
You've started praying
But still you're staying..
And you don't know for what

But I still say
Been alone's so wrong
Been alone's so wrong
I've been alone too long

A blind date's
A blinkered meeting
A rendezvous with some person unknown
A secret tryst, a shady dealing
A gamblers chance when love's dice are thrown

But you've checked the classifieds in all the papers
And you filled in all your forms and tried computadata
See ya later
What a waste of a
Blind date..
