It was long after midnight
When we got to unconditional love
She said "Suremy heart is boundless
But don t push my limits too far."
I said "If love was so transcendant
I don t understand these boundaries."
She said "Just don t disappoint me
You know how complex women are."

I ll be around
If you don t let me down too far
I ll be around
If you don t let me down

It was just before sunrise
When we started on traditional roles
She said "SureI ll be your partner
But don t make too many demands."
I said "If love has these conditions
I don t understand those songs you love."
She said "This is not a love song
This isn t fantasyland."

Don t go too far
A phosphorescent wave on a tropical sea is a cold fire
Don t cross the line
The pattern of moonlight on the bedroom floor is a cold fire
Don t let me down
The flame at the heart of a pawnbroker s diamond is a cold fire
Don t break the spell
The look in your eyes as you head for the door is a cold fire

I ll be around
If you don t push me down too far
I ll be around
If you don t push me down

Love is blind if you are gentle
Love can turn to a longcold burn...
