leave or take
it's up to you
grab and shake
perceive straight through
feel and touch
pass on, explore
loving life
and wanting more

you can tell
she’s a woman
‘cos she smells
like a woman
does

kiss and tell
she’s a woman
weaves her spells
like a woman
does

yes yes
indeed
it’s been
agreed
she lives and breathes
like a woman
does

you can tell
she’s a woman
‘cos she smells
like a woman
does

kiss and tell
she’s a woman
weaves her spells
like a woman
does

little by little
bite beyond bite
tipping time nearer
dark scraping light

taken the decision
to trust you to be straight
but underneath I'm not so sure
all I can do is watch and wait

wide boy suit
chancing smile
reserving judgement
for a while

character assasination
privately inside my head
waiting for a first false step
hoping not suspicion dreads

flipside of bliss
always the danger
it could come to this
been a stranger
to yourself for years
strategic positioning
dismissing shadow fears
time to identify
to know
the armour
to let go

too shy to talk
too lazy to make something up
too distant to be intrigued
to wonder at the tales you weaved
too small to realise your height
too dull to glimpse whatever might
have been the dreams that you inspired
to realise the souls you fired
are spinning on way about above
have known what it's like
to be in love

sit and sense the way we touch
inches or miles apart
self contained within our skins
and all the time together

pairing off in twos or clans
friends or not we co-exist
pushing each other off the stage
but huddled close against the weather

you are in the beginning
before it all began
your are in the ending
when all is undone

can't quite make you out
what's it all about?
don't know, what we don't know

can't quite see ahead
don't understand just what's been said
when will we come or go?

you are in the beginning
before it all began
your are in the ending
when all is undone

feeling like a loosened end
an unwrapped ball of string
wondering when I clambered down
where I misplaced the will to sing

secrets splashed across the screen
naked offering to the crowd
weighed and judged with nothing known
forbidden feelings now so loud

needing things we dare not seek
holding tight to histories
missing times we've never shared
scared to acknowledge fantasies

feeling honoured every time
you make the choice to touch or hold
realise you are the one who calls
you are the one who is in control

it is only when you really need
when you are drinking long and deep
safe enough to move nearby care free
content to rest a while with me

it is only when you need to know
who you are and what you feel
or when the sun is beating warm
you come this far away from harm
