Everything goes by so fast Just slow down a little Save the best part for last You speak in riddles Your intentions turn me on I'm your's forever Will you love me when I'm gone? When I'm gone! When I'm gone, You're an unfenced fire! (When I'm gone,) Over walls we've trampled! (When I'm gone,) It's you I admire! (When I'm gone,) My living example... Your eyes are an undiscovered ocean far away Any minute now keeping Both poets and priests at bay Don't get ahead of me Could we just this once see eye to eye? Could you want perhaps me? Ask me how it feels to vie
To vie! You're an unfenced fire! (to vie) Over walls we trampled! (to vie) It's you I admire! (to vie) My living example... It's a photograph discovered a decade after It's a cannon blast disguised as a firecracker It's enough to bring a brick wall to its knees And sing, please Could you move in slow motion? Everything goes by so fast Just slow down a little Save the best part for last For last! You're an unfenced fire! (for last) Over walls we trampled! (for last) It's you I admire! (for last) My living example... My living example... It's you I admire!! My living example
