lyrics

She swans around my neighbourhood
I’d be her shadow if I could
Marking her movements in my book
To hang around along her route
But beauty has a lethal ray
And I dissolve beneath her gaze
So when she passes on the street
I bow my head down in defeat

You know exactly what you’re doing
When you’re throwing out that look
And you’d only leave me dangling
Once you’ve got me on your hook
But I like the wave of gold
That’s in your shock of raven hair
And I love the way you smoulder
With that blunt and brazen stare

Oh you look so good
Yeah you look so fine
But what gets me breathless
Is you look so fearless, so fearless

She’s skipping through her working day
While winning new fans all the way
The bolder ones will have a crack
And it’s all water off her back

You know exactly what you’re doing
And exactly what you are
And exactly where you’re going
And it isn’t very far
Hardly noticing the catcalls
Cos you get them everywhere
And you owe it all to nature
Isn’t nature so unfair?

And you look so good
Yeah you look so fine
But what gets us breathless
Is you look so fearless, so fearless

Well I want you to know what I think of you
You look almost as cool as you think you do
Yeah I want you to know why you have my heart
Cos you’re almost as hot as you think you are

But if I ever got you back home
I’d be overcome with fear
You would see I’ve got no backbone
It could only end in tears

No there’s no lead in my pencil
I could never follow through
Cos it went into these sentences
I dedicate to you

Cos you look so proud
And you look so tough
And you scare me witless
Cos you look so fearless, so fearless
