David Wilcox - Rule Number One lyrics

from What You Whispered

..............................................

Could be the one, could be tonight

A love that would feel so right

You look in his eyes, he pours the wine

They shine in the candlelight

Its easy to laugh, easy to smile

Except when the service was slow

Then he was cruel, suddenly mean

Not like the man you know

If he's rude to the waiter and it makes your heart confused

This is lesson # 1 .......Run

Get up and run, don't walk, don't wait

Rule #1 don't hesitate, your date is done.... Run

Look, this is a gift, this is a deal

Pay for the taxi back home

Its fare for the lift, fair for the meal

Return like warrior

What have you lost? Except for a dream,

A dream that would shatter like bone

Its better to run and get away clean

Than pay for the lawyer

If he's rude to the waiter and it makes your heart confused

This is lesson # 1 .......Run

Get up and run, don't walk, don't wait

Rule #1 don't hesitate, your date is done.... Run

Get up and run, don't walk, don't wait

Rule #1 don't hesitate, your date is done.... Run

..............................................
