New Lovers are interesting creatures Primping our feathers and polishing tongues So that rehearsed stories slip out with ease Ahhhhhh...these resplendent but dangerous times The preening and waxing of word, as the hands of the clock move Become less playful lures and more so ... expectant promises That can resemble and feel like chain link Ahhhhh...these resplendent but dangerous times Oh but the temptation to throw caution to the wind is too strong We tear off our clothes and dive into love's depths And we forget our mother's caution "Still Waters Run Deep!" Ahhhhh...these resplendent but dangerous times

These Resplendent but Dangerous Times
New Lovers are interesting creatures Primping our feathers and polishing tongues So that rehearsed stories slip out with ease Ahhhhhh...these resplendent but dangerous times The preening and waxing of word, as the hands of the clock move Become less playful lures and more so ... expectant promises That can resemble and feel like chain link Ahhhhh...these resplendent but dangerous times Oh but the temptation to throw caution to the wind is too strong We tear off our clothes and dive into love's depths And we forget our mother's caution "Still Waters Run Deep!" Ahhhhh...these resplendent but dangerous times
