Buddy Holly Lyrics

i recall catriona put her hand in mine as the band carried out our back line she asked me if she could have my address i said "find me a pen that writes and i might say yes" i was wishing that i had a hotel room with little bars of soap in the bathroom and a fully stocked mini bar so i could act like a rock star and say "hey, come on up" but my band was driving back over night in a rental truck there was so far to get in so little time i had to be direct and take a straight line all my love songs have got too many words buddy holly wrote the about the best love songs i think i've ever heard like, "hey you want am i-a-gonna do with a girl like you" catriona came back with a pen she said "run me by your home phone number again" i said "it's 061 256 1107 call me any time as long as it's after eleven then sheila shouted from the van "come on mike stop trying to cop off with your one and only fan we've got a lot of motorway ahead of us tonight i for one would like to be home ahead of daylight there's so far to get in so little time you better be direct take a straight line" but all my love songs have got too many words... i remember catriona the first time you called my girlfriend was in the bedroom so i took the phone in the hall i was so excited i could barely speak you know i think i dumped gina that same week 'cause there was so far to get in so little time i had to be direct and take a straight line all my love songs have got too many words buddy holly wrote about the best love songs i think I've ever heard you've got to keep it simple don't play with words...
