Eleni Mandell - Love Never Acted lyrics

You belong to the ages Though no one knows who you are You've given no speeches, nor won any wars You aren't a diplomat settling scores But I could never forget you I'll write your name next to mine We'll go down in history for nothing at all But a love never acted upon I belong to the city I'll never live by the shore I like bourbon on ice every now and again And I hope you partake so this friendship could end But you never elect to You shake hands hello and goodbye Yes, we'll go down in history for nothing at all But a love never acted upon sponsored links I'm not suggesting that it would feel natural Holding your hand or a kiss on your mouth But I can't help wondering with every flirtation What is it you want? What's this friendship about? You belong to the sages They predicted you'd never want more You'd settle for years being careful and boring Never taking a change, it's your heart you're ignoring But I will never forget you I've written your name next to mine Yes, we'll go down history for nothing at all But a love never acted upon
