|
Hoops, hoops, always jumping through hoops |
|
And tripping on the hedges |
|
Tiptoe through fire, too sure to look behind |
|
I ain't using using checks and balances |
|
Youth had freed me |
|
To run with the wolves and feast on the night |
|
The hungry night, the hungry night |
|
Maybe I just wanna be your man |
|
How am I to put you down |
|
If I'll just pick you up again? |
|
Maybe I fear I can't taste your love now that I've decided |
|
That I can't only be your friend |
|
Move, make a move that you might be tempted again to feel |
|
Anything that's wrong is right |
|
When day has fled to night I've been there |
|
Dan, there's nothing wrong |
|
With a taste of a kiss that missed on love |
|
And so it fainted |
|
To be dismissed would be so sad |
|
So I check you up and down |
|
I've got a greater proposition |
|
There's a simple way to fit the mold |
|
You'll look a man on his mission |
|
First, you'll spread yourself thin |
|
Next, you can paint your face a pale white |
|
Then, you'll let yourself through that door |
|
And alas, you'll surely claim your prize |
|
I'll bring you up to have a sweeter tooth and a deeper root |
|
Until you're face to face with an apparition |
|
The ghost that breathes lies is a greater danger, a perfect stranger |
|
At last you've turned the light on |
|
At last you've turned the light on |
|
Maybe I just wanna be your man |
|
How am I to put you down |
|
If I'll just pick you up again? |
|
Maybe I fear I can't taste your love now that I've decided |
|
That I can't only be your friend |
|
Oh, be mine |
