She’s a brown-eyed girl in a tight black sweater
I’ll never see a woman look better
At least that’s what the words said on the screen
In a small dark room at three a.m.
I work my keyboard and pretend
To be someone who’s worth her company

Chorus
All my dreams and fantasies
Are right here on this small blue screen
In two hundred and fifty six,
The colors that I see
But I wonder who you might be
Nicolette 23

What if some day we might meet
In a café on a quiet street
I hope we’d find this wasn’t just for fun
I’d like to tell you all I’m feeling
I’ve got nowhere I need to be this evening
And I hope that you’re still signed on when I’m done

Repeat Chorus

Bridge
This loneliness just rips and tears
It’s all that I’ve got left to share
I’m searching, reaching, trying to find
Anyone who cares

So go on tell me all you’re feeling
I’ve got nowhere I need to be this evening
And no one left to talk to but the chair.

Repeat Chorus
