Sometimes your touch is so soft I can't feel it
Sometimes your voice is all that I could need
Sometimes your eyes, they could pierce through the darkness
When you think I don't see you looking at me
Well, a fire burns slow if you know how to build it
The heat travels up from the ground towards the trees
And when the winds change, I know smoke follows beauty
I follow it up till it's you that I see
Oh, it's a shame, it's a shame
The last one to know is the first to complain
Oh, beware of the dark
For all of your secrets are shared with a spark
You're warm to touch, but you're bitter as sin
And I think the late nights are doing you in
And no matter the song, it's the blues that you sing
And sometimes I wish they were all about me
Oh, it's a shame, it's a shame
The last one to know is the first to complain
Oh, beware of the dark
For all of your secrets are shared with a spark
Well, you can't help the way that you feel in the morning
Unless you can take back the night
No, you can't laugh long enough
You can't live hard enough
You can't hold me that tight
Because sometimes your touch is so soft I can't feel it
Sometimes your voice is all that I could need
Sometimes your eyes, they could pierce through the darkness
When you think I don't see you looking at me
You think I don't know you're looking at me
You don't know i see you looking at me
