I wanted to be with you alone
And talk about the weather
But traditions I can trace
Against the child in your face
Won’t escape my attention
You keep your distance
With a system of touch
And gentle persuasion
I’m lost in admiration
Could I need you this much
Oh, you’re wasting my time
You’re just wasting time
Something happens and
I’m head over heels
I never find out ’till
I’m head over heels
Something happens and
I’m head over heels
Ah, don’t take my heart
Don’t break my heart
Don’t, don’t, don’t throw it away
(Throw it away)
I made a fire
I’m watching it burn
Thought of your future
With one foot in the past
Now just how long will it last
No, no, no, have you no ambition
My mother and my brothers
Used to breathe in clean air
(Changes with those)
And dreaming I’m a doctor
(They can’t stop)
It’s hard to be a man
When there’s a gun in your hand
Oh I feel so
Something happens and
I’m head over heels
I never find out ’till
I’m head over heels
Something happens and
I’m head over heels
Ah, don’t take my heart
Don’t break my heart
Don’t, don’t, don’t throw it away
And this is my four leaf clover
I’m on the line, one open mind
This is my four leaf clover
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la…
In my mind’s eye
One little boy, one little man
Funny how time flies
