love in a bubble

i met this girl and she was lost on a cross street

she was walkin' up 14th on a sunny day

i asked her nicely if she needed some assistance

she said 'hey

i'm just tryin' to pass the time away'

so we started talking and we slipped around the corner

heading downtown for a cafe au lait

i got to thinkin' that she wanted something stronger

she said

'i'm just tryin' to pass the time away'

time away

love in a bubble

time away

i'm in trouble

you got the money

honey

make mine a double

i love my love in a bubble

down at macdougal we were getting pretty hungry

so we ordered pizza and the waiter was gay

poured out the vino and he asked if we were married

she said 'hey

i'm just tryin' to pass the time away'

so we sat for hours and we talked about the weather

'bout the government

the country and the price that you pay

i said 'hey

baby

do you wanna hear some music?'

she said

'hey

i'm just tryin' to pass the time away'

time away

love in a bubble

time away

i'm in trouble

you got the money

honey

make mine a double

i love my love in a bubble

down in the basement with some groovy hammond organ

i said 'dance with me

baby

hey what do you say?'

so she bopped a bit and she boogalooed and she did the mashed potato

singin' 'hey i'm just tryin' to pass the time away'

four in the morning

we were getting pretty tired

she said 'you know i only live a block or two away'

so i looked at her and i took her hand and we headed up on 7th

singin' 'hey we're just gonna pass the time away'

time away

love in a bubble

time away

i'm in trouble

you got the money

honey

make mine a double

i love my

time away

love in a bubble

time away

i'm in trouble

you got the money

honey

make mine a double

i love my

i love my

i love my love in a bubble
