Not with haste

Your eyes they tie me down so hard.
I'll never learn to put up a guard.
So keep my love my candle bright.
Learn me hard, oh learn me right.

This ain't no sham.
I am what I am.

Though I may speak some tongue of old.
Or even spit out some holy word.
I have no strength from which to speak.
Where you sit me down and see I'm weak.

We will run and scream.
You will dance with me.
They'll fulfil our dreams,
and we'll be free.
And we will be who we are.
And they'll heal our scars.
Sadness will be far away.

So as we walked though field of green.
Was the fairest sun I'd never seen.
And I was broke I was on my knees.
But you said yes as I said please.?

This ain't a sham.
I am what I am.
I'll leave no time.
For a cynic's mind.

We will run and scream.
You will dance with me.
They'll fulfil our dreams,
and we'll be free.
And we will be who we are.
And they'll heal our scars.
Sadness will be far away.

Do not let my fickle flesh go to waste.
As it helps my heart
and soul in its place.
And I will love with urgency
but not with haste.
