A slow pain

 

 

 

 

 

there's

 

a slow pain penetratin' my heart

 

I

 

think somehow, I'm almost certain, almost convinced

 

it has reached, each an' ev'ry part, it must be love

 

there's

 

a

 

slow pain penetratin' my heart

 

 

strong talk is what you have

 

talk of what it is, to be on top of things

 

seems so very important, I don't need it so much

 

 

only

 

thing I can think of, is it in you to love

 

'cause

 

a

 

slow pain is penetratin' my heart

 

all

 

the strong talk cannot disguise cannot even hide

 

what's

 

goin' on inside, what's happening to you

 

I

can

 

only guess what I see

 

it

 

must be love you need

 

 

somethin' you could get, if you don't let it be

 

 

now

 

you've stopped, your eyes lock in to mine

 

with a strange temptin' look, an' you feel a slow pain rise

 

it

 

shows in your eyes, I  read in it your thoughts

 

 

I

 

know what you've got

 

there''s a slow pain penetratin'your

 

heart

 

 

now

 

you

 

hold me in such a way, I know you're not playin'

 

I

 

have no doubt you know

 

what it is like to have, this feelin' inside

 

 

to

 

be caught up in a web, you know must be love

 

'cause a slow pain is penetratin' your

 

heart
