Byblos lyrics

by

The Beach Boys


[Verse 1: Terry Kath]
I saw her once before
She didn't turn me on
One night she stopped to talk
To pass the time
And then I saw her eyes
Her softly smiling glow
We sat and talked all night at Byblos

[Verse 2: Terry Kath, (Bandmates)]
She talked of feelings
That I knew were true, knew were true
She painted me a picture
Using every shade of blue (Every shade of blue)
It was light with laughter (Ooh)
At times it made me cry (Ooh)
And now I'll never know just why
I didn't ever try to hold her
To squeeze her
To kiss her all night long
I never tried to please her

[Verse 3: Terry Kath, with bandmates]
Then, soon she had to go
I sat there all alone
And thought of things she said
The whole day through
And then I realized
I never took the time
To find out where she lived
Or where to call
[Verse 4: Terry Kath, (Bandmates)]
I thought that I would see her
The next night (The next night)
Ooh, anticipating how
I'd set myself right (How to make that right)
Then, I went back to Byblos (Ooh)
I sat there and waited (Ooh)
Feeling just a little nervous
And a little frustrated
Then, soon, in she came
Looking just the same
Ooh, I could hardly wait to take her
Far from the game

[Verse 5: Terry Kath]
Then a person came in to the club
That I had to speak to
I explained the situation to her
And I thought she understood
But I guess she thought
That I was jiving her around
'Cause when I looked for her
This is what I found

[Bridge: All]
She was rapping
With a real good friend of mine
He was happening
Oh, it was his time
I really couldn't blame him
He was sad and lonely too
Just talking to her did me so much good
I knew she'd do him good too
[Verse 6: Terry Kath]
Then I went home and I got it on
Sat down to write these words
When I was finally alone
Then about halfway through
Wondered if someone knew
Where she was so I could give her a call
And I found out that she was right down the hall

[Outro: Terry Kath, with bandmates]
Not too far away
But that's okay
I'll just wait for the day
When I can see her again
And spend some time
Ooh, time, some time, some time
Go and get her, go and get her
Go back and get her, go and get her
Shall I get ya? Gonna get ya
Can't forget ya, ooh, get ya
Gonna get ya, ooh
