[Verse 1]
You can't hold it too tight
These matters of security
You don't have to be wound so tight
Smoking on the balcony
Well it's like sleaze in the park
You women, you have no self-control
We angels remark outside
You are known for insatiable needs
But I don't know a thing

[Pre-Chorus]
I've seen love
And I follow the speed in the starlight
I've seen love
And I follow the speed in the star-swept night

[Chorus 1]
Yeah, pace is the trick
And to all the destruction in man

[Verse 2]
Well I see you as you take your pride, my lioness
Your defenses seem wise, I cannot press
And attentions are demise, my lioness
Can't you hurt it some, I think I hurt it
[Pre-Chorus]
I've seen love
And I follow the speed in the starlight
I've seen love
And I follow the speed in the star-swept night

[Chorus 2]
And now I select you, slow now I let you
See how I stun, see how I stun
Now I select you, slow now I let you
See how I stun, see how I stun

[Bridge]
And to all the destruction in man
And to all the corruption in my hand

[Chorus 2]
And now I select you, slow now I let you
See how I stun, see how I stun
Now I select you, slow now I bet you
See how I stun, see how I stun
Now I select you (I've seen love)
Slow now I let you
See how I stun, see how I stun
Now I select you (I've seen love)
Slow now I let you
I always follow the speed in the star-swept night
[Refrain]
You don't hold a candle
You don't hold a candle
You don't hold a candle

[Instrumental Outro]
