Single at Thirty

by Schmitty - Gemini

Here I am single at thirty years old 
I'm a good-looking guy or so I've been told 

I have a great job and I'm well educated 
But I haven't found true love in the women I've dated 

I know I won't find it in a nightclub or bar 
Where most women judge you by the make of your car 

I need a new setting where there are no games to play 
Some place somewhat trendy like a museum or cafe 

But I don't drink coffee and I'm not into art 
So why try to pretend when I don't fit the part? 

Do opposites attract or do similar birds flock together? 
I'm puzzled by these adages that contradict one another 

So I'll just try to continue and play out my fate 
And hope that some day I'll find my soul-mate 

To say 'love is blind' is just a ridiculous pun 
I just hope that it sees me before I turn thirty-one
