"All men have secrets and here is mine. So let it be known. For we have been through hell and high tide. I can surely rely on you, And yet you start to recoil. Heavy words are so lightly thrown, But still Id leap in front of a flying bullet for you.So, what difference does it make? So, what difference does it make? It makes none. But now you have gone, And you must be looking very old tonight."
"Its time the tale were told Of how you took a child And you made him old.Its time the tale were told Of how you took a child And you made him old. You made him old.Reel around the fountain, Slap me on the patio. Ill take it now."
"I know I need hardly say How much I love your casual way. Oh, but please put your tongue away, A little higher and were well away. The dark nights are drawing in And your humour is as black as them. I look at yours, you laugh at mine, And "love" is just a miserable lie."
"Upon the sand, upon the bay, "There is a quick and easy way," you say. Before you illustrate, Id rather state: Im not the man you think I am. Im not the man you think I am.And sorrows native son, He will not smile for anyone. And pretty girls make graves."
"Hand in glove. We can go wherever we please And everything depends upon How near you stand to me.And if the people stare, Then the people stare. Oh, I really dont know, And I really dont care.Kiss my shades..."
"Ah, a jumped-up pantry boy Who never knew his place. He said, "Return the ring." He knows so much about these things. He knows so much about these things."
"Under the iron bridge we kissed. And although I ended up with sore lips, It just wasnt like the old days anymore. No, it wasnt like those days. Am I still ill? Ohh... Oh, am I still ill? Ohh...Does the body rule the mind? Or does the mind rule the body? I dunno..."
"Good times for a change. See, the luck Ive had can make a good man turn bad. So please, please, please, Let me, let me, let me Let me get what I want this time."
"I am the son and the heir Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar. I am the son and heir Of nothing in particular.You shut your mouth, how can you say I go about things the wrong way? I am human and I need to be loved, Just like everybody else does."
"On the day that your mentality Decides to try to catch up with your biology, Come round.Cause I want the one I cant have. And its driving me mad. Its all over, all over, all over my face."
"Shyness is nice and shyness can stop you From doing all the things in life youd like to. Shyness is nice and shyness can stop you From doing all the things in life youd like to.So, if theres something youd like to try, If theres something youd like to try, Ask me, I wont say no. How could I?"
