You applyin' pressure To help me crystalise And you've got the faith That I could bring paradise
I'll forgive and forget Before I'm paralysed Do I have to keep up the pace To keep you satisfied?
Things have gotten closer to the sun And I've done things in small doses So don't think that I'm pushing you away When you're the one that I've kept closest
[ahh ahh ahh] x4
You don't move slow And taking steps in my direction The sound resounds, echo Does it lessen your affection?
You say I'm foolish For pushing this aside Don't burn down our home I won't live without
Placid as a mountain to the sea I wish that time would take me over I've been down on my knees And you just keep on getting closer
[ahh ahh ahh] x4
Placid as a mountain to the sea (Things have gotten closer to the sun) I wish that time would take me over (And I've done things in small doses) I've been down on my knees (So don't think that I'm pushing you away) And you just keep on getting closer (When you're the one that I've kept closest)
