This Life Of Mine

I have been waiting for this
All the time, it's on my mind
'cause you've been alone for so long now
It's in your eyes, behind those eyes. and I
Want to love you, but I
Don't know if I know how
'cause when I have to go away I lose all sense of yesterday
When I ask you to stay for a while
The look in your eyes always comes as a surprise
You see caution lives far from my mind
And this life of mine, makes me smile sometimes
And I want to love you, but I don't know if I know how
'cause you look at me as if to say
You haven't changed in any way
Bah dah bop, bah dah, bah, bah wah ahh
Ooo some say it's ignorance, that turns love into self defense
Can turn to a silent rage is any glimpse of common sense
It makes me smile sometimes
Bah dah bop, bah dah, bah, bah wah ahh
It makes me smile sometimes
