Tread lightly and slightly,
you'll like it, so pass it
Cards close, play games long,
You may have played a couple of fiddles
be fore, darling, you won't play mine
I'll break my heart now for you
We're layers taking longer than forever
Call the other, we ain't lovers
We ain't getting any younger
Are you interested or messing about?
See intention, attentions
To some liminal but a fictional
You may have backed a few boys up
I break my heart now for ya
They say that later's better
When layers take it longer than forever
I pull the other, we ain't loveless,
we ain't getting any younger
My guard's been off for so long,
I'm tired of being on my own
And I'm fed up of fighting,
fed up of feeling all alone
For maybe, darling, we chance this
But at whatever pace you need,
I'm at your speed when we go
And you're no heartbreaker
You won't break my heart now, will ya?
They say the later's better
I'm off to get wiser and older
