V1- Two halves of a whole

Completed in 1948

In a bar in Philadelphia

She said it was worth the wait.

C- "You've kept me waiting a long time."

He said "I'm sorry, Ma'am."

He said he finally felt hope

The moment he took her hand.

V2- It was there that night

When they both felt so complete

A tall honey-blonde soldier

And a psychic so petite.

C- "You've kept me waiting a long time."

He said "I'm sorry, Ma'am."

He said he finally felt hope

The moment he took her hand.

He said he finally felt hope

The moment he took her hand.
