Story Behind the Song
Long distance relationships are tough to begin with, and when an ex-boyfriend enters the stage at the location of the far off lover, it makes things all the more complicated. Such a situation was mine some years ago, and was the inspiration for this song. I would like to say to all parties involved that all is forgiven on my part, and I can only hope said parties will see fit to forgive me as well. To the rest of you out there in cyber land, I can only say that I hope you enjoy the song.

Lyrics and Music by Bill McCormick © 2002 Charles W. McCormick
Make a color photocopy
laminate it and send it to me
blow it up three times its size
I’ll draw heart shapes in your eyes
Then I’ll hang it above my bed
wake to see your giant head
maybe my day won’t be so bad
but only maybe, only maybe
The first time we kissed
conditions probably weren’t the best
you were just an inch from being hitched
to the boy you’d been living with
As our lips together pressed
you leaned against a tree and tore your dress
and said this could all be a great big mess
but only maybe, only maybe
I fired two warning shots
I said “stay out of the woods, you could get lost”
I shook my rattle and I coiled to strike
You rolled up your pants and invited the bite
You counted to ten and said “ready or not”
You laid your trap and I got caught
I swam through a river of your spit
but there are reasons for it;
Your hands are a loom
Your sweat is perfume
My heart is electric
and you are the fuse
repeat x2
Make a color photocopy
laminate it and send it to me
blow it up three times its size
I’ll draw heart shapes in your eyes
Write a letter in a blood red pen
swear you’ll stay away from him
maybe I’ll forgive you then
but only maybe, only maybe
