If the World is Full of Strangers

A Life of Love..

Dan Reveal
You should put the tea on simmer,
'cause I've got lots more yards to mow.
It's so hard to think in this beckoning bedroom glimmer,
but you're still the girl I'm most happy to know.

Am I someone you can just talk to,
or did our love walk through some unexpected door?
There's still time to call off your watchdog aura,
and be the fragile girl you were before.

If the world is full of strangers,
I'll teach them to love me as I knew you always would.
There's no reason to have a broken heart,
if you've lived a life of love--
if you've lived a life of good.

So please make haste away from those antique factory charms,
for my life is in need of your beautiful smile.
If I'm meant to be the man that is lost, let me be lost in your arms.
The teapot whistle can wait for a while.

The teapot whistle can wait for a while.

If the world is full of strangers,
I'll teach them to love me as I knew you always would.
There's no reason to have a broken heart,
if you've lived a life of love--
if you've lived a life of good.
