Steal Your Heart Away

(albüm: Primitive Dance - 1987)

I know you've got a different picture in mind
Some dream world of a different kind
I know this rhythm we've been moving to is way too slow
Each time our bodies are supposed to meet
I'm here still missing the beat
And when I look at you I see in your eyes
We're still dancing to a different tune

Take me to your dreaming place
Open up my eyes
Let me see what it takes to be
Your lover in disguise
Show me how I do those things
That make you wanna stay
'Cos I'll go crazy if I don't find
The words I gotta say
To steal your heart away

I buy you diamonds, buy you golden rings
And all kinds of beautiful things
But that don't matter to a lover with a restless heart
'Cos you still want to wake up to a different scene
Some screen gem like the one in your dream
And leave me standing like a fool in the wings
Still waiting for a part to play

Take me to your dreaming place
Open up my eyes
Let me see what it takes to be
Your lover in disguise
Show me how I do those things
That make you wanna stay
'Cos I'll go crazy if I don't find
The words I gotta say
To steal your heart away

I know you think he's right for you
That he's in tune with what you do
That he can touch you deep inside
Where all your deepest feelings lie
But I got something you should know
Before he starts to hurt you so
'Cos you can bet your life he's gonna hurt you

And maybe you feel that it's all right
To leave me waiting every night
To put me down in company
In front of everyone we see
To take my loving when it's free
And then to throw it back at me
Well baby I just can't stand it

'Cos I can be the one for you
And I can make your dream come true
And I can love you like he can
'Cos fancy clothes don't make no man
Believe me baby
I got what it takes to make you feel good

And maybe you think a man should be
As perfect as one man can be
To love you when you're feeling down
And miss you when you're not around
Well I can't be that one for you
I can only be the one that loves you

Hey, what's this on your mind?
Hey, what's this change of mind?
Hey, what's this on your mind?
