Sometimes Love
Sometimes love’s a paper tiger
That haunts you in your bed
Sometimes love’s a two fist fighter
That lands you on your head
When it comes
Don’t try to fight it
There’s nothing you can do
It finds you when it does, and leaves you when it wants to
Sometimes love’s a perfect poem
That words have never said
Sometimes love’s a big disaster
That leaves you good as dead
When it comes
Don’t try to fight it
There’s nothing you can do
It finds you when it does, and leaves you when it wants to
So when I come
I’ll come insisting
You hear the thing I say
Do not run
Do not resist me
Don’t look the other way
We have time
We have tomorrow
We don’t need reasons why
Now you have to decide
