Faint Heart Never Won Fair Lady

the way that your heart beats

with it's perfect precision in tempo with mine blurs my vision

so i'll meet you in the middle

forsaking the facade we've been faking

I know that you're not scared

of chances

of unseen tomorrows

of glances

whether stolen or borrowed

from these coy and charming

so disarming new eyes



I said you've got some chances to take

girl don't run away

this isn't fate

it's ambition - a conscious decision

to sever all your ties and become the one that you always hoped to be



one day before children

we'll kick off our shoes and go swimming in gunpowder park

and we'll stay there till dark

as we lay in the grass i'll ask you

what you are thinking

and then as we lay there i'll kiss you

and our hearts entwine for all this time at least as long as our situation allows



please don't lead me on

don't hold out on me

your eyes give away

what your lips won't say
