Could you move in slow motion?
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 yours forever
Will you love me when I'm gone? (When I'm gone)

You're an unfenced fire
Over walls we've trembled
It's you I admire
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?
What you want full haunts me
Ask me how it feels to vie (to vie)

You're an unfenced fire
Over walls we've trembled
It's you I admire
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
Over walls we've trembled
It's you I admire
My living example
My living example
It's you I admire
My living example
