The day after the nightclub:

VOICEMAIL: Hi. This is Indigo. I'm not in right now. Please leave a message at the end of the beep...............BEEP.



I hope that by the time you get this message, you call me back

many don't know my government, but you can call me, "Black"

Yes......my eyes have detected a woman in need

when you were loungin at the bar by yourself I believe

so being the man that I am, I shouldn't have assumed

that you're boyfriend will be around soon

cuz you told me that you didn't have one, that was a delight

and you gave me the ice grill like you wanted to fight

chaotic day at the job? sweetie, I can comprehend

when after work you got dragged here by your friends

I wanted to do you a favor and take a load off your feet

hit the dance floor for a minute, real short and sweet

since you weren't down, why not buy you a drink

and talk about the time and place where we both should link

maybe a concert, the beach or even the theater

I don't mean to be persistent, I hope I ain't scarin ya

I won't waste your minutes...now I'm gonna let you go

I gave you my number just to let you know

boys do what they want to but men do what they have to

we all live once, so don't let this one pass you

I hope you made it home safe and your day is very splendid

and the weekend for us is very much intended



BEEP.
