Coming On Strong

Coming On Strong

Coming on strong.
I wanted it to go on and on.
I feared when she’d be gone.
She was coming on strong.

I wanted her to stay.
Maybe she might think it’s wrong.
For her to be coming on strong.
So I began to pray.

Just one date was all it took.
She let me know she wanted more.
Even as we slipped in my door.
She give me that special look.

Then I finally saw the light.
I needed to come on strong too.
That was it. I was no fool.
Just what was needed to make it right.

Years later, it is still strong.
One night of love has lasted till now.
We came on strong and made a vow.
It has lasted ohh, so long.

If this should happen to you.
Come on strong while you can.
Come on now, you’re a man.
It could last, if you want it to.
