Longer Fuse

You walked into my room, a lover from the past

A lifetime since I looked into your eye-eyes

You held me like one holds onto a dream that has gone bad

Ain't it scary how so many dreams run dry



You've traveled round the world two times since you've left me

Fell in love three times, grown restless another four

But through the haze of love and pain

You say you wanna feel young again

Ain't it funny how that happens when you get older

Whoa when you get o-older



And you don't know-ow me anymore, I've changed

The innocence you found disappeared when you went away

And I don't fall in love that quickly like I used to do

The passion still explodes, bound by a longer fuse



You're livin' with a rock 'n' roll musician off the coast

I hope he makes it, walk alone at night just to get away

He waits for you in bed and when it don't feel good you learn to fake it

I can see you lyin' silent in your rage, woh-oh in silent rage



And you don't know-ow me anymore, I've changed

The innocence you found disappeared when you went away

And I don't fall in love that quickly like I used to do

The passion still explodes, bound by a longer fuse

Bound by a longer fuse (I don't fall in love)

Bound by a longer fuse (I don't fall in love)

(I don't fall in love)
