You move in slow motion
Everything goes by so fast
Just slow down a little
Save the best part for last

You speak in riddles
Your intentions turn me old
I'm yours forever
Will you love me when i'm gone?
When iam gone

You're an unfenced fire
(When iam gone)
Over walls we travel
(When iam gone)
Its you I admire
(When iam gone)
My living example

Your eyes are an undiscovered ocean far away
Any minute now keeping
Both poets and priests at bay
Don't get ahead of me
Could we just this once see eye to eye?
What you offer has me
Ask me how it feels to vie
(to vie!)
Your an unfenced fire
(to vie!)
Over walls we travel
(to vie!)
Its you I admire
(to vie!)
My living example

Its a photograph discovered a decade after
Its a cannon blast disguised as a firecracker
Its enough to bring a brick wall to its knees
And sing, please

You move in slow motion?
Everything goes by so fast
Just slow down a little
Save the best part for last
(for last!)
You're an unfenced fire
(for last!)
Over walls we've travel
(for last!)
Its you I admire
(for last!)
My living example
My living example

Its you I admire!
My living example.......
