Deborah Gibson Ode To A Would Be Lover Lyrics

Ode To A Would Be Lover Lyrics

VERSE1:

Lay your head down by my side

Look that way just one more
time

And promise me... nothing

I know time isn't ours to keep

But that doesn't mean I can't watch you sleep

Listen to the strength
of silence



VERSE2:

There's a sweet sensibility

And
darling that is enough for me

I know you are taken

But, do I get to
you just a little bit

I know I'm as close as I'm gonna get

And
though my heart is close to breaking



CHORUS:

Oh if you're
any kind of man at all

You know the woman I am

So darling don't be
afraid I won't break plans you've made

I will be just a friend



VERSE3:

Flowers grow in the month of May

And they brighten my
every day

You're here for me now and I'm laughing

And though I
crave your soulful kiss

I can deal with it as it is

Two tall ships
passing



CHORUS



VERSE4:

I don't doubt for a
moments time

The heart's not a mirror of the mind

But think it
through anyway

And if you wake up a lonely child

And want to escape
for a little while

Come to me and we'll dance out in the rain

Friend
or lover we can dance out in the rain



If I said I'm in love with
you

Tell me what then would you do?
