Girl, can you understand I never used to go dancing I was the kind of man who rather stay at home Now, when I think about How much I miss you I want to jump for joy And thank Him I'm not alone

Am I the weaker man Because I understand That love must be the master plan?

Like a train on a track like spokes inside a wheel Involuntary motion like rolling downhill And there's no way to stop it It's a natural thing like sunrise and dusk Snowflakes, waterfalls same thing like us And there's no way to stop it Once you fall in love

I move with the trees In the breeze I know that time is elastic And I know when I go All my particles disband and disperse And I'll be back in the pulse And I know none of this'll matter In the long run But I know a sound is still a sound Around no-one And while I'm in this body I want somebody to want And I want what I want

And I want you to love me
