I went to call on my friend, two streets away
We planned to walk into town, school's out today
His mother called out to us, "Hold on you boys
Let me get dressed and take you, it's just a short drive"
Her touch caressed me, like her sweet perfume
She turned to kiss my face hello
I won't forget that day and David's mom
My mind goes back, that day and David's mom
That perfect shape, yeah that was David's mom
Out of the dark she made the lights go on
A pair of black silk stockings hung over a chair
They were warming fireside, high quality wear
She said, "I'm not quite ready"
She had to slip them on, hitched up her tight, black dress
She knew my mind was blown
Her eyes were watching me as she slipped them on
And snapped black garter into place
I won't forget that day and David's mom
My mind goes back, that day and David's mom
That perfect shape, yeah that was David's mom
Out of the dark she made the lights go on
I won't forget that day and David's mom
My mind goes back, that day and David's mom
That perfect shape, yeah that was David's mom
Out of the dark she made the lights go on
That antique record player, HMV
To hear Les Paul and Mary Ford
That was my normal day for visits there
This day was different, and looking back
God, what was that?
