I nearly did it
I nearly found a way
To break through your defences
When the light fades from the day
You wouldn’t give in
And I couldn’t pick your lock
Left me waiting outside your door
In a state of shock
I thought we were good
We’d talk like old friends
You just lost that feeling of love
I’ve been away too long to make amends
I played the game well
As best I could
You knew my shape
What the space between us is worth
I might take another shot
While the sun is in your eyes
You might let your hands fall down
I’ll catch you by surprise
If I win I know I’ll win you back
You’ll give in
Fall down on your knees
At the love in my attack
