Lyrics

Pace Is The Trick

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

You can't hold it too tight, these matters of security

You don't have to be wound so tight, smoking on the balcony

There's such sleaze in the park

And women, you have no self-control

The angels remark outside, you are known for insatiable needs

I don't know a thing

I've seen love and I follow the speed in the starlight

I've seen love and I follow the speed when the stars swept by

Yeah, pace is the trick

And to all the destruction in man

Well, I see you as you take your pride, my lioness

Your defenses seem wise, I cannot press

And detentions are demise, my lioness

Can't you hurt it some?

I think I hurt it

I've seen love and I follow the speed in the starlight

I've seen love and I follow the speed when the stars swept by

And now I select you, (slow now I let you)

See how I stun

See how I stun

And now I select you, (slow now I bet you)

See how I stun

See how I stun

And to all the destruction in man

And to all the corruption in my hand

And now I select you, (slow now I let you)

See how I stun

See how I stun

And now I select you, (slow now I bet you)

See how I stun

See how I stun

And now I select you, (slow now I let you)

(I've seen love)

See how I stun

See how I stun

And now I select you, (slow now I bet you)

I follow the speed when the stars swept by

You don't hold a candle

You don't hold a candle

You don't hold a candle
