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
when you sit me down and see i'm weak



we will run and scream
you will dance with me
they'll fulfill our dreams and we'll be free

we will be who we are
and they'll heal our scars
sadness will be far away




so as we walked
through fields of green
was the fairest sun i'd never seen

and i was broke
i was on my knees
you said yes as i said please

this ain't no sham
i am what i am
i leave no time
for a cynic's mind




we will run and scream
you will dance with me
they'll fulfill our dreams and we'll be free

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 keeps my heart and soul in its place
i will love with urgency but not with haste
