With music playing softly and lights burning low It's easy to ask for a dance And we stray a little further to walk in the dark Feeling the sweetest romance But when I look into my memory Then I lose all my nerve Something always gets in the way A closer look into my memory And then the voice will be heard There was pain once before So I have to be sure For my heart's sake It's natural occurrence when love has gone wrong To build up your wall of defense So I watch you through my barrier hoping to find A person who holds no pretense But when I look into my memory
Then I lose all my nerve Something always gets in the way A closer look into my memory And then the voice will be heard There was pain once before So I have to be sure For my heart's sake Voices are saying possible doubt Gently debating, checking you out Need a decision unfortunately It's better to be safe then sorry But when I look into my memory Then I lose all my nerve Something always gets in the way A closer look into my memory And then the voice will be heard There was pain once before So I have to be sure For my heart's sake
