She Has Beautiful Eyes

I have a friend.
Some might say she's selfish.
I would be one of them.
Miki's only thinking about herself.
She says she wants to see me
and then I call her up at ten a.m.,
she sounds half asleep on the phone,
says she's sleeping in.
She drank too much last night, stayed up too late,
now she can't see me until tonite, but wait,
didn't we have a lunch date?
That's not all...
Tonite she didn't call.
She promised she would call.
To her promises mean nothing at all?
I am appalled, Miki is surely headed for a fall.
I'm getting upset, starting to regret
knowing her at all...
But wait, Miki just called and apologized.
I'm relieved, I'm excited, my good feelings
have been reignited.
I want to laugh, I want to cry.
She has beautiful eyes.
