| Get me now while I’m alive
|
| For all is fading fast
|
| In clouds of indecision
|
| Your lovers from the past
|
| Well if you wanna stop and start
|
| I hope you’re satisfied
|
| With what you ran away from
|
| 'Cause with me you never tried
|
| 'Cause you have had more windows
|
| More windows in a row
|
| Than anyone I care for
|
| You know I’d even let you go
|
| Oh it’s hard to make a promise
|
| When we’re both young and old
|
| Cn’t say if your investment
|
| Will be repaid in gold
|
| 'Cause you are much too serious
|
| I can’t afford to be
|
| I’ve seen you at my window
|
| And you’re good enough for me
|
| Get me now while I’m alive
|
| On fire at your threshold
|
| And if this is too much for you
|
| Return to nothing special
|
| 'Cause you have been too serious
|
| I can’t afford to be
|
| I’ve seen you at my window
|
| And you’re good enough for me
|
| Tall shadows in the evening
|
| The evening is fading fast
|
| The kind of love I been dealing out
|
| Has come to me at last
|
| 'Cause you have had more windows
|
| More windows in a row
|
| Than anyone I cared for
|
| You know, I’d even let you go |
