Come now

Come now, I am trying my best.
Come now, I am doing it right.

Come now, come now, come now.

I wait by the metro station
With a crowd of anticipation

For a woman in a beautiful dress
To arrive before the stores close.

She'd appear with a different face
Just to catch me off-guard.

And when she does, she'd say, "You're
Not what I had imagined, not at all,

But you'll do. You are all right."
