Don Henley
Leather and Lace
Is love so fragile
And the heart so hollow?
Shatter with words
Impossible to follow
Saying I'm fragile
I try not to be
I search only
For something I can't see
I have my own life
And I am stronger
Than you know
But I carry this feeling
When you walked into my house
That you won't be walking out the door
Still I carry this feeling
When you walked into my house
That you won't be walking out the door
Lovers forever, face to face
My city or mountains
Stay with me, stay
I need you to love me
I need you today
Give to me your leather
Take from me my lace
You in the moonlight
With your sleepy eyes
Could you ever love a man like me?
And you were right
When I walked into your house
I knew I'd never want to leave
Sometimes I'm a strong man
Sometimes cold and scared
And sometimes I cry
But that time I saw you
Knew with you to light my nights
Somehow I'd get by
Lovers forever, face to face
My city or mountains
Stay with me, stay
I need you to love me
I need you today
Give to me your leather
Take from me my lace
Lovers forever, face to face
My city or mountains
Stay with me, stay
I need you to love me
I need you today
Give to me your leather
Take from me my lace
Take from me my lace
Take from me my lace
