Admiration lyrics

"Admiration"

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 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
