lyrics

a sweetheart
so reticent
and movements
so hesitant
do i read –
between the lines?
do i take it –
as a compliment?

cross my path
darling, cross my path
and don’t be coy with me
and i won’t be coy with you
do you swoon?
like i do
have you butterflies?
or is it just me

i don’t mind if we go –
painstakingly slow
or if we only liaise
once in a blue moon
do i make –
the first moves?
do i take –
the first steps

[chorus]
