Have You Met Miss Jones 1937 'I'd Rather Be Right'

James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 05 Oct 2004

It happened, I felt it happen.
I was awake. I wasn't blind.
I didn't think,
I felt it happen.
Now I believe in matter over mind.
And now, you see,
we mustn't wait.
The nearest moment that we marry
is too late!

"Have you met Miss Jones?"
Some one said as we shook hands.
She was just Miss Jones to me.
Then I said:
"Miss Jones,
you're a girl who understands
I'm a man who must be free."
And all at once I lost my breath,
and all at once was scared to death,
and all at once I owned the earth and sky!
Now I've met Miss Jones,
And we'll keep on meeting till we die,
Miss Jones and I.

and all at once I owned the earth and sky!

And we'll keep on meeting till we die,
