Head Over Heels

I wanted to be with you alone

and talk about the weather

But traditions I can trace against the child in your face

Won't escape my attention

You keep your distance with a system of touch

and gentle persuasion

I'm lost in admiration, could I need you this much

Oh, you're wasting my time, you're just, just, just wasting time



Something happens and I'm head over heels

I never find out till I'm head over heels

Something happens and I'm head over heels

Ah, don't take my heart, don't break my heart

Don't, don't, don't throw it away (Throw it away...Throw it away...)



I made a fire and watching it burn

(yeah) Thought of your future

With one foot in the past now just how long will it last

No, no, no, have you no ambitions, oh

My mother and my brothers used to breathe in clean air

(Nothing ever changes when you're acting your age)

And dreaming I'm a doctor

(Nothing gets done when you feel like a baby)

It's hard to be man when there's a gun in your hand.

(Nothing ever changes when you're acting your age) Oh, I feel so,



Something happens and I'm head over heels

I never find out till I'm head over heels

Something happens and I'm head over heels

Ah, don't take my heart, don't break my heart

Don't, don't, don't throw it away



And this is my four leaf clover

I'm on the line, one open mind, this is my four leaf clover



(La la la la la, la la la la la, la la la la la la)

(La la la la la, la la la la la, la la la la la la)

(La la la la la, la la la la la, la la la la la la)

(La la la la la, la la la la la, la la la la la la)

(La la la la la, la la la la la) In my mind's eye (la la la la la la)

One little boy, one little man (La la la la la, la la la la la)

Funny how...time flies.
