Taking My Life In Your Hands

My dear impulsive darling I suspect my letter got to you too late
And its really just a silly fragment of paper
But it means so much to those who wait
All the suffering days and nights til I dare dream again
There you suddenly stand and Ill be damned if you
Didnt disappear with the dawn
Chorus:
Hours pass and darkness comes
Soon I will close my eyes
Will you return if you dont reply
Youll be taking my life in your hands
Youll be taking my life in your hands
Taking my life in your hands
I dont know why my dearest darling
I cant tell you how I feel when you are near
When I see you have returned my letters unopened
I will tear them up, your voice ringing in my ears
But youre kidding yourself if you think this
Correspondence will end
I can always pretend words I dont have the courage to
Send
Reach you
Repeat chorus
