I remember seeing you for the first time In grade one You had your hair in pigtails Mine was cut with a basin It was Saint Patrick's on the hill Our parents did enlist When you first spoke to me I nearly choked on my jam sandwich
You were the dux and I was the dunce I thought all my little-lunches Had come at once
Danielle, Danielle Our conversations were dictated by the bell Danielle
We did the progressive barn dance At the primary school ball Armed with two clammy hands and a pair of left feet I circled the science hall The chance for me to ask you to be My friend would soon be gone By the time I plucked up my courage I heard a voice say "Pass your partners on"
I'm now inclined to say That like my asthma, you took my breath away
Danielle, Danielle My palms were as sweaty as hell Danielle
But I guess in those days You had to be careful of getting girl germs If a girl tried to hold my hand I'd probably panic And give her a Chinese burn
And so the years rolled by and didn't seem to stop Our milk containers were exchanged for bottles of Passion Pop Our friends would help us drink them down the park in the trees Our nights at the Railway Hotel are still so clear in my memory
Memory, memory
And I remember your birthday, 21 years I didn't turn up just because I heard your dad Was putting on free beer We gathered there your friends and me to sing To sing
