Chungking Express

When you fly there's always one
stewardess that catches your eye.
It's almost like she's saying
fly me, and I would if she'd
give me the opportunity.
Last Christmas on flight 633,
flying from LA to Honolulu
it happened to me.
As usual, one caught my eye.
Long black silky hair,
white creamy thighs.
Everytime she passed she
took a glance at me.
And I, of course pretended
her glance I didn't see.
This must have driven her wild,
for halfway through the flight she
brought me a cup of coffee and said,
"I hope you're enjoying the view and
the flight and I know you've been checking
me out and I know you like my type."
Then she slipped me a heart shaped
piece of paper and said, "I hope to see
you after the conclusion of this flight."
I opened the heart as she walked away and
these are the words she had to say.
"I have only one person in my thoughts
and now you know that it's you.
So read and follow instructions if
you know what's good for you.
Meet me at Duke's tonight at 10:00.
We'll share a bottle of wine.
Then we'll go for a moonlight swim.
After that the night belongs to
me and you, for you're the man I want
in my arms until I fly tomorrow at two."
I did know what was good for me.
Don't stewardesses look good in uniform?
They look even better with out.

Thank you Ratleader, passing shadows, Margherita and Jennis for the nice responses...
I can't tell from your responses if you have seen Quentin Tarantino's movie called Chungking Express or not...it has a nice little story of a relationship between a lovesick cop and two stewardessess (different occasions) that was a treat to watch.  I love movies about relationships and romance and fun...
Yes passing shadows I like women in uniform...not sure if my favorite is in or out of uniform...James
