Lyrics
'ROUND ROBIN
Words & music by Frank Pusateri
What it was that hit me, oh I don't know to this day.
I met her strolling slowly near a small sidewalk cafe'
Maybe the way she looked at me, with sorrow in her eyes, I can hear her cries.
You know I've got to be 'ROUND ROBIN
You know I've got to be 'ROUND ROBIN
Oh I know I want to be 'ROUND ROBIN
She drove a Duesenberg, I haven't seen one of those in years
Probably never, ah but anyway, it got us outta there
Down a cobbled road past our lives in second gear, the futures nearer
If opposites attract, then we've got a lot in common
We don't have all the facts but I see it all in Robin ooh
What it was that hit me, oh I don't know to this day
She turned and smiled a sad goodbye
and then went on her way
Maybe the way she looked at me with sorrow in her eyes.
I could hear her cries.
