You jark back your hand away from mine and I move my lips away from yours
|
Then quietly we sit tryin' to forget
|
Those deep running thoughts that run wild across our minds
|
You quickly stop the words you start to say and we realize just how close we are
|
And we both know if we let ourselves go we'll do something we'll be sorry for
|
Slip away today means sorrow tomorrow
|
It's love we know but we can't keep but yet we like to borrow
|
Trying to hold back emotions and desires
|
It's hard to keep from doing something we'll be sorry for
|
|
My love hungry heart begs for more of what your lips hold in store
|
But our conscience just won't let us at least tonight it kept us
|
From jumpin' off the deep end and going too far
|
But one of these night you and I will be ruled by the passion of our hearts
|
And we both know if we let ourselves go and do something that we'll be sorry for
|
Slip away today means...
|
It's hard to keep from doing something we'll be sorry for
|
