lyrics

darling, close your eyes
for your love is blind
still I hope in time
that it will be mine

darling step inside
and im sure you'll find
you've been on my mind
long before this rhyme

whenever you're around, I can't sleep and
when I'm lying down, you're in my dreams and
I know that its wrong to feel this
but I don't have to explain my reasons

now we've reached the time
in which we decide
do we let this lie
or give into desire?

lets get this over now, don't fight feelings
just never speak aloud, or repeat them
the sober mouth, shares no secrets
and the drunken clown, has no regrets
