Oh no said I don't dare defy my word
|
Don't you impede my heart
|
Make my sight blurred
|
Unless of course you feel
|
That confrontations are funny
|
Or sad with occasional sunny
|
Spells
|
You will be so intensely slow
|
But then
|
You've always been that way
|
Since I don't know when
|
However wouldn't it be
|
Rather nice if in some way
|
You could run with the minimum of effort a relay
|
I don't love you look down or above you
|
So why should I hesitate
|
Not letting out my independent air
|
That sweet aroma of contentment I implore
|
You not to ignore
|
Although I have to anyway
|
