Love on the web

It must have been Feb, when I went on the web
and first met the girl of my dreams
but I didn't know yet, that love on the net
is never just quite what it seems

She said Hi, How d'you do?, I said fine, how are you?
She said great, just lookin' for fun,
I said yeah, I'm the same, just playing the same game
just wanting to chat to someone

She said she was from Charlotte, I said who the hell's Charlotte?
She said it's in the good ol' US of A
I said well, that's a fine place, the United States
I'd love to go there some day

She said you write really well, I said, you can tell?
I said well, you write really well, as well
She said, it quite turns me on, why not give us a phone
and then we both can start to gel

So no sooner had I stopped phoning, than I could hear her moaning
and soon we were both starting to yell
and I have to admit, the really great bit
was that coming to know her so well

but there's no thing as cheap thrills, I've received the phone
bill
British Telecom now takes home my pay
So I talked to my girl, who said my dear Will
I agree, let's call it a day

But you know that first night, I thought love at first byte
was really more than just a dream
but I guess I was wrong, just kidding myself on
it was nothing more than a pleasurable scream

Since then I've met many, they seem ten a penny
those 'looking for friendship and more'
but there's always a catch, in finding your match
you've got to be careful, for sure

I mean, once, at the door, I nearly fell through the floor
on seeing this tattooed man with some flowers
He said, you don't know me? but my names Cindy,
we talked on the net for hours

Then there was her, who really knew how to purr
and of course, there was that guy on death row
then there's that couple, who wanted a double
and let's just forget about that John Doe

So I guess that's the way, at the end of the day
that cyber love isn't easy to find
but surely in this world, there's that one special girl
who for me is really on-line
