I keep slipping and sliding back to you,
Inexorably, as tides to the shore.
By the time my sharpest senses come to
I've already firmly darkened your door.
In the sweaty hands of a tiny tot
Would you trust something irreplaceable?
As I give you all the best that I've got
Today common sense seems untraceable.
Everyone who fell in love before me,
I can clearly see their knowing smiles.
Your grip of carelessness should implore me
Before I'm shattered along the miles.
I could break free now, but what can I do
When I'm this hopelessly in love with you?
