closer than a girl can get
to trouble if she hasn't yet
(walk down)
well it started out like any show
up from the dark to the lights warm glow
and did you hear that dedication
when I stepped up and out on stage and
you came on lion, all courageous,
and I stepped up to your cage
just to see if we would go
across the bridge I thought you'd know
and now the sun is up already hot
with two rays onto straying thoughts
and each one warms to make me glow
or burn me if I'm not careful
and it's not hard, it's too easy,
I get it, and I get to be
closer than a girl can get
to trouble if she hasn't yet gotten it
so now can I step lightly back between
where you are and where I've been
back into that thing we do
where it's me and it's just you
and it's not hard, it's too easy
I get in, and I get to be
closer than a girl can get
to trouble without getting in it.
