Candy Butchers - What to Do with Michael lyrics

They met in Paris in '94 Or was it '95? She was there studying abroad, he was on tour Playing in another dive They partied hard, and they parted ways A little north of the Seine He dreamed about her in so many ways She dreamed about him in French Well, she knows what to do with Michael She knows how to make him feel That he's the one, he's his mother's son Not like anyone, he just needs time to heal They met in New York a few months later He was still living alone Hugging the bar and masturbating Never answered his phone Their first date was a movie together Outside at Bryant Park Well, The Spirit of St. Louis just went on forever So they drank wine until they saw stars Well, she knows what to do with Michael She knows how to make him feel That he's the one, he's his mother's son Not like anyone, he just needs time to heal They finally hooked up for the first time The night before the 4th of July He felt so awkward saying goodbye To the girl who just changed his life Now, my friend, they are inseparable She even gets that boy to go to the gym Now if you don't think that's love, you must be cynical Or maybe, man, you're just dreaming in French, yeah
