Head Over Heels

Orzabal / Smith

I wanted to be with you alone
And talk about the weather
But traditions I can trace
Against the child in your face
Won't escape my attention
You keep your distance fear
The system of touch
And gentle persuasion
I'm lost in admiration
That I need you this much
Oh, you're wasting my time
You're just, just, just wasting time

(Chorus)
Something happens and I'm head over heels
I never find out till I'm head over heels
Something happens and I'm head over heels
Ah! Don't take my heart, don't break my heart
Don't, don't, don't throw it away

Throw it away! Throw it away!

I made a fire and watching burn
Yeah! Thought of your future
With one foot in the past now
Just how long will it last
No! No! No! Have you no ambition
My mother and my brothers
Used to breathe in clean in air
(Changes with those...)
And dreaming I'm a doctor
(They can't stop...)
It's hard to be a man
When there's a gun in your hand
Oh I feel so...

(Chorus)

And this my four leaf clover
I'm on the line, one open mind
This is my four leaf clover

La la la la la

It's my mind's eye
One little boy, one little man
Funny how, time flies!
