**[Verse 1]**
My girlfriend and I ran until we were dead tired.
Afterwards, we took a shower and changed our clothes.
Her mother prepared some ice water for us.
**[Pre-Chorus 1]**
Her mother said, “How about some iced water to drink?”
My girlfriend replied, “That sounds nice.”
**[Chorus 1]**
An instrumental trac was playing, floating on the air,
Tnat cachy, sweet familiar melody was everywhere.
**[Verse 2]**
My girlfriend said, “I feel refreshed after that shower.”
I replied, “It really cleared my head.”
“By the way, who plays this song?” I asked.
**[Pre-Chorus 2]**
My girlfriend tilted her head
and replied, “Well, I can’t tell.”
**[Chorus 2]**
The instrumental kept on playing, filling up the room,
That thrilling rhythm started chasing out the sleepy gloom.
**[Instrumental Solo]**
**[Verse 3]**
Her mother started to explain, “That’s Steve Maxwell Porcaro on the acoustic drums, you see, and on the bass, it’s Abraham Laboriel, definitely.
The man on keyboard is Greg Mattieson, playing with such soul.”
**[Pre-Chorus 3]**
Her mother added with a smile, “And Larry Eugene Carlton’s on electric guitar, taking his sweet solos.”
**[Chorus 3]**
The instrumental soared again, the music taking flight,
That brilliant improvisation was burning ever so bright.
[Final Chorus]
I turned to her and had to say, “Your mother’s memory is great.”
Then looked at her mother, “So what’s the title? I can’t wait.”
She paused a moment, then she laughed, “Oh, what was it again?”
