A slow pain

there's a slow pain
penetrating my heart
I think somehow
I'm almost certain
almost convinced
it has reached
each and every part
it must be love
there's a slow pain
penetrating my heart

strong talk of what you have
talk of what it is
to be on top of things
seems all so very important
I don't need it so much
only thing I can think of
is it in you to love
'cause a slow pain is
penetrating my heart

all the strong talk
cannot diguise
cannot even hide
what's going on inside
what's happening to you
I can only guess what I see
it must be love you need
something you could get
if you just don't let it be

now you've stopped
your eyes lock into mine
with a strange tempting look
and you feel a slow pain on the rise
it shows in your eyes
I read in it your thoughts
I know what you've got
a slow pain's penetrating
your heart
