Now or Never

Your face, it stood out
Like a bombed out house on the terrace
Where all looked the same
Your beauty remained, you’re a vision, the song in my head
When all stopped to stand
By the touch of your hand, I was honest
Honestly told you
Life couldn’t hold you, a shadow, the ghost in my heart
And if I took the time
You’d be mine, last forever
Be true, now or never, like it’s the first time
And in truth, I’d be yours
Hold me close, say whatever
A life lost in ether, lost in your arms
The break neck speed
That I took to your lead, I was smitten
When all wasn’t there
You’re the one who would care
You’re my Turner, my real work of art
Like the bitterest pill
I was lost in the thrill, I was broken
I was bashed up and torn
I was splintered thread warn, but you kissed me and I was alive
And if I took the time
You’d be mine, last forever
Be true, now or never, like it’s the first time
And in truth, I’d be yours
Hold me close, say whatever
A life lost in ether, lost in your arms
If I was alone, so alone, just a drunken stranger
I’d never see that in your eyes
So alone, so alone, a man in danger
I’d run to you as I have done all my life
Your face, it stood out
Like a bombed out house on the terrace
Where all looked the same
Your beauty remained, you’re the vision, the song in my head
When all stopped to stand
By the touch of your hand, I was honest
Honestly told you
Life couldn’t hold you, the shadow, the ghost in my heart
And if I took the time
You’d be mine, last forever
Be true, now or never, like it’s the first time
And in truth, I’d be yours
Hold me close, say whatever
A life lost in ether, lost in your arms
And if I took the time
You’d be mine, last forever
Be true, now or never, like it’s the first time
And in truth, I’d be yours
Hold me close, say whatever
A life lost in ether, lost in your arms
And if I took the time
You’d be mine, last forever
Be true, now or never, like it’s the first time
Like it’s the first time
