Boomtown Rats - Blind Date 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...
