See You Soon by Samsa Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hey, Kate, are we still on for eight o'clock?
The way I talk about this, you can pro'bly tell that I don’t date a lot
I left the gate unlocked so you could inch right to the porch
You’ll see my Honda in the drive, I kinda wish it were a Porsche
I’m real excited, though, of course, we’ll take a walk around the block
And do the things that people do in indie films, like play lacrosse
And set up barbecues, and make kebabs
There’s a casino near my house, and we can play the slots, with you, I think I’d take the odds
I made a tray of tater tots that we can take with Jäger shots
And watch Invader Zim and Netflix nature docs, in case you’re not
A fan, I got you covered, we can play Catan, or stake a bon-
-fire until the break of dawn, while makin', tracin' paper swans
It’s stupid, but I’ve clicked your OkCupid profile twenty times
Rereading messages you sent, it’s funny how we met online, and I confess:
I still refresh your Instagram to see you in that dress
The color blue was blessed to even coalesce with your caress
I love the ink you had done, my favorites, for example
Are the anchor on your neck and “Carpe diem” on your ankle
I’m so thankful that we’re meeting, it’s a shame it’s only noon
Eight more hours and we’ll be together, Kate, I’ll see you soon
[Chorus]
Let’s talk it over
Let’s talk it over one more time
Let’s talk it over
Let’s talk it over one more time
Let’s talk it over
Let’s talk it over one more time
Let’s talk it over
Let’s talk it over one more time
Let's talk it over
[Verse 2]
Hey, Kate, I didn’t get a call back
It’s almost 3:00 now, I just want to make sure things are on track...
I put a lot effort in this, carpeted my whole apartment
Bought a cardigan from the bargain bin at my local Target
Made an Olive Garden reservation, fuck, I’m sorry
I’m just worried ‘bout you’s all, it almost feels like you forgot me
That’s what always happens, I’m the one key that doesn’t fit the key slots
The fuckin' vulture in a flock of peacocks
A pair of Crocs in a Foot Locker full of Reeboks
I saw you typin' somethin', don’t fuck with me Kate, I swear I saw those three dots
I know that you don’t tweet lots, that’s why I don’t DM you
It ticks me off that you delete me when I Facebook friend you
And every date I went to, I get sodas off the menu
Then I drink 'em both, 'cause no one ever shows up to the venue
Stop ignoring what I sent you, can I just have an update?
The last we talked was in the morn', when you said “Happy birthday”
Wait a second… I see what you’re doin', Kate, you almost got me
You’re pretendin' you forgot, so eight o'clock you’ll come and shock me
With a chocolate cake while all my friends jump out and shout- (“Surprise!”)
And I would clutch a knife and we would smile and cut a slice
And I’m so happy that I met you, I really feel like you get me
I respect you, if you'd let me, I’d tell you directly
It’s unhealthy how I think about you, let’s get married someday
I really wouldn’t care about what both my parents would say
And me and you should have our honeymoon in Paris in May
Or on the Chesapeake Bay- Jesus, I’m really sorry, it’s embarrassing, Kate
With you, it’s just so fuckin' easy to get carried away
But anyway, I think that we should celebrate this at the Olive Garden
I just got a card and some red balloons at the dollar market
Call me when you find some parkin'
I’ll just start the order and get ourselves wine and appetizers
You don’t need to bring a gift, but if you do, I love surprises
I’ll see you soon
[Chorus]
Let’s talk it over
Let’s talk it over one more time
Let’s talk it over
Let’s talk it over one more time
Let’s talk it over
Let’s talk it over one more time
Let’s talk it over
Let’s talk it over one more time
Let's talk it over
[Verse 3]
I’m at the Olive Garden, all I’ve had for breakfast’s
A bag of Chex Mix, I’m starving, I even got us breadsticks
I’ve been here for an hour and a half, it’s 10:06 now
The candle wicks were gettin' wax on the suit that I picked out
The one balloon I tied around your chair is out of air
I brought a pack of UNO! cards and I’ve been playin' solitaire
And are you almost here? I’m feel like I’m havin' heart attacks
Conversations with you feel like ancient artifacts
I can hear the waitress laughin' at me, sittin' lonely in my party hat
I just liked your Instagram, I wish that you would heart me back
You’re not comin', are you? much to my chagrin
Everything I ever want gets whisked away with gusts of wind
I always knew you’d never come, sometimes, it’s nice to just pretend
It must have been disgustin' to you, all the texts I tried to send
I don’t recall a single night where I’m not lonely at the end
This cold lasagna at this table is my only fuckin' friend
I’m fuckin' done
Don’t you ever speak to me again
Don’t you ever Kik, DM, PM or tweet to me again
Don’t you ever think about how we would be if were one?
Kate, I love you and I mean it, you would see if you would come
I’d rip out every atrium I have and beat them to your drum
And if tonight is inconvenient, I’ll meet with you for lunch
Or maybe supper, breakfast, dinner, heck, I’ll treat you to a brunch
I know you try to stay in shape, but we could cheat with a dessert
Or maybe sushi, pizza, burgers, I could beat you to the punch
And maybe meet you after work, it’s been a week less than a month
That I have known you, but I know now where you go to school and church
It’s unbelievable what you can find with just a Google search
In fact, a week ago, I took my Honda Civic through the ‘burbs
And saw your ass unloading groceries and parked next to the curb
The seventh trip you made your plastic bag had ripped onto the dirt
Your tangerines were rollin' off the pavement, out into the curve
That I was on, and I got nervous you would think I was some perv
So I curled down and hid behind the wheel and hoped that you would swerve
But accidentally hit the horn and put the whip into reverse
And every car alarm went off, and there’s no question that you heard
So, look, I’m sorry Kate, if you think I’m a perv or I’m a creep
But do you even know how hard it was reservin' you a seat?
There’s like a thousand people here for some event I would suppose
And every wall is decorated with confetti or with bows
In fact, out in the parkin' lot, I think I overheard some folks
This dude was talkin' to his friends ‘bout how tonight he might propose
And I remember now, he parked his yellow Mustang next to mine
I held the door for him, he smiled at me and made his way inside
And now he’s sittin' in a section I can see from my direction
Based on his expression, I can tell he didn’t pop the question
Now his date is here, but it sucks that I can’t see her better
But I can tell just by their hands that they’re so happy together
The way their fingers entwine, I bet they’ll be happy forever
I see his hand clutchin' the ring under the napkin he gets her
Now he’s whisperin' her stories about back when he met her
One about how they would never check the app for the weather
And leave the house without bringin' a coat, a cap or umbrella
And had their first kiss in the rain and she was laughin' whenever
The thunderclaps would scare the dude and he would crack from the pressure
That’s a funny story, Kate, I bet we’d have an adventure
It’s not too late to meet me, I’m sittin' smack dab in the center
You gotta see this shit, though, I’ll send you a snap or whatever
But first, I gotta get up close so I can capture it better
And get in front of them, like sentences and capital letters
It’s sendin' now, I swear, you gotta see these lovers, its precious
He’s wearin' yellow and her dress is the same color your dress is
They remind me of me and you, it’s sort of like I’m seein' two
She’s even got the same tattoo of carpe diem that you do
Now they’re kissin', and I’m wishin' someday I could be the groom
I think I’m tearin' up, I’m sorry Kate, I’ve got to be excused
It’s almost midnight and the management is clearin' out the room
But I’m not leavin', they’ll have to sweep me, my red balloon
My UNO! cards and party hat off of the table with their brooms
I’ll sit here till the break of dawn, waitin’ till I can’t see the Moon
What good’s a tulip if you plant it and not wait to see it bloom?
You’re pro'bly runnin' just a little late, no problem, Kate, I’ll see you soon
[Chorus]
Let’s talk it over
Let’s talk it over one more time
Let’s talk it over
Let’s talk it over one more time
Let’s talk it over
Let’s talk it over one more time
Let’s talk it over
Let’s talk it over one more time
Let's talk it over
