Lyrics
She came all the way from America
She had a blind date with destiny
And the sound of Te Awamutu
Had a truly sacred ring
Now her parents are divorced
And her friend's committing suicide
I could not escape a plea from the heart
You know what it means to me
She said don't walk away
I'm down on my knees
Oh, please don't be mean to me
So I talked to you for an hour
In the bar of a small town hotel
And you asked me what I was thinking
I was thinking of a padded cell
With a black and white TV
To stop us from getting lonely
I could not escape s plea from the heart
You know what it means to me
Said don't walk away, I'm down on my knees
Oh, please don't be mean to me
Now I could not escape a plea from the heart
Mysterious sympathy
Couldn't wait for a chance to walk out the door
You know what it means to me (yeah)
Hey
I saw you lying in the arms of a poet
I heard him tell you tantalizing
Lies
What do you know? (What do you know?)
Not much
In the arms of a poet, you know
You know what it means
In the arms of a poet, you know
Absolutely, definitely
You're so mean, baby
In the arms
Very deep, very powerful arms
You know, you know, you know
You know what it means, woo!
You know, you know
You know what it means
In the arms of a poet, don't you know?
You know what it means
Thank you, Sydney
