Fill Pattern 1

Pattern 1
I don't know why you're mean to me
Pattern 2
When I call on the telephone
Pattern 1
I don't know what you mean to me, but I want to turn you on
Pattern 2
turn you up, figure you out, I want to take you on

Pattern 1
The Fool might be my middle name
Pattern 2
But I'd be foolish not to say
Pattern 1
I'm going to make whatever it takes, ring you up, call you down, sign your
name, secret love,
Pattern 2
make it rhyme, take you in, and make you mine.

  What I want to feel,                              I want to feel it now.


Pattern 1
You know with love comes strange currencies,
Pattern 2
And here is my appeal:
Pattern 1
I need a chance, a second chance, a third chance, a fourth chance,
a word, a signal, a nod, a little breath
Pattern 2
just to fool myself, to catch myself, to make it real, real
