Discreet Love Lyrics
i fell in love so discreetly
well i was sure
i'd slipped your mind
that when i shook off all the shackles
would have to find my place in line
but then i found you on my doorstep
and you were asking for the time
i never found them less attractive
your cornered desperation lies
(chorus)
how was i to know
you were trying to take it slow
i played along burning daylight
making up and changing minds
and stepping back just out of sequence
the dissonance all by design
best of friends dubbed you my best chance
and i grimaced out of pride
i never felt so quite distracted
as when we jumped on the l line
(chorus)
how was i to know
you were trying to take it slow
what all could we be
when the world is in my reach
(solo)
(chorus)
how was i to know
you were trying to take it slow
what all could we be
when you're living at my feet
well i was sure
i'd slipped your mind
would have to find my place in line
and you were asking for the time
your cornered desperation lies
how was i to know
you were trying to take it slow
making up and changing minds
the dissonance all by design
and i grimaced out of pride
as when we jumped on the l line
how was i to know
you were trying to take it slow
what all could we be
when the world is in my reach
how was i to know
you were trying to take it slow
what all could we be
when you're living at my feet
