You were never found to be backward
|
or wanting in any way
|
you were hidden so cleverly in love
|
what scheme did you obey!
|
|
And I know why you go so slow
|
|
You had such strange disappointments
|
too bare against the paint
|
you knew the handle was broken
|
and your strong arm was faint
|
|
And I know why you go so slow
|
|
Your tired empire's fallen
|
victim to your unease
|
you could make yourself so useful
|
if you'd get on your knees
|
|
And I know why you go so slow
|
