A Little While (1992 home demo) - Bonus Track

lyrics

Well summer comes and then it's gone
and you'd be wise to find romance before too long.
Another taste of something sweet,
and you can rest assured that everything will be discreet
unless you put your heart where your libido's s'posed to be.

She arrived and she was leaving.
You said "please stay the night," she wondered if you were deceiving.
And you embraced and went to bed.
And as she kissed you you heard music in your head.
She pulled you down and turned you round and whispered in your ear:

"I don't wanna fall in love with you tonight.
I don't wanna give my heart to you tonight.
I only wanna lose myself in someone else's arms for a little while."

First she came, now she's going.
She's picking up her things and you can see her smile glowing,
and now she's walking out the door,
and now you realize you'll miss her all the more.
There's something wrong with what you're feeling deep inside your heart.

And now you've got this brand-new heartache in your soul
and you've got something you can dream about.
You crossed the bridge and now you pay the toll.
Were you better off without?

As you wrap your arms around yourself,
remember what she said. She said:
"I don't wanna fall in love with you tonight.
I don't wanna give my heart to you tonight.
I only wanna lose myself in someone else's arms for a little while."
