lyrics

If you took my heart and stowed it away
I still could not keep this sweet tempest at bay
the touch of your gaze as your eyes seemed to say
I will love you wreck you teach you to stay my love

cuz it don’t take no eyes to see what’s going on here
It don’t take no mind to know what’s in store down this road
and it don’t make no difference woman cuz I want you to know
that my heart can’t hold this heat much longer

and all of my instincts could not help me ignore
this wordless warning, this longing for more
so the grace of my days became the grapple of war
but find me a beauty that’s more worth fighting for than my love

cuz it don’t take no eyes to see what’s going on here
It don’t take no mind to know what’s in store down this road
and it don’t make no difference woman cuz I want you to know
that my heart can’t hold this heat much longer

so put your hand in my hand, pull me quietly close
give this moment a chance then take my love as your own
for this lifetime that comes so quickly may go
but you will forever be my heart and my home my love

cuz it don’t take no eyes to see what’s going on here
It don’t take no mind to know what’s in store down this road
and it don’t make no difference woman cuz I want you to know
that my heart can’t hold this heat much longer
