But when you act
The things you do affect us all.
But when you act
You take us away
From the squalor of
The real world
Are you here on your own?
Yes, Oh yes.
So am I
What a fortunate coincidence
Maybe you're my reward
For my efforts here tonight.
It seems crazy
But you must believe
There's nothing calculated
Nothing planned
Please forgive me
If I seem naive
I would never want
To force your hand
But please understand
I'd be good for you.
I don't always
Rush in like this
Twenty seconds
After saying hello
Telling strangers
I'm too good to miss
If I'm wrong
I hope you'll tell me so
But you really should know
I'd be good for you
I'd be surprisingly good for you.
I won't go on
If I'm boring you
But do you understand
My point of view
Do you like what you hear
What you see
And would you be
Good for me too?
I'm not talking
Of a hurried night
A frantic tumble
Then a shy goodbye
Creeping home
Before it gets too light
That's not the reason
That I caught your eye
Which has to imply
I'd be good for you
I'd be surprisingly good for you
Please go on
You enthrall me!
I can understand you perfectly
And I like what I hear
What I see, and knowing me
I would be good for you too
I'm not talking
Of a hurried night
A frantic tumble
Then a shy goodbye
Creeping home
Before it gets too light
That's not the reason
That I caught your eye
Which has to imply
I'd be good for you
I'd be surprisingly good for you.
There is no-one, no-one at all
Never has been
And never will be a lover
Male or female
Who hasn't an eye on
In fact they rely on
Tricks they can try on
Their partner
They're hoping their lover
Will help them or keep them
Support them, promote them
Don't blame them
You're the same
