lyrics

I talk and never do and that's my weakness
But she's the kind of girl that leaves me speechless
Every time she walks in to my view
You know I'm struck by her completeness

She dresses like a model in some brochure
But she remains immune to every overture
I change my route so I can pass her in the street
But fall apart as I approach her

Can you imagine what it would be like to be her passion
Something of value in her life
It would be heaven to the likes and love of me
But I don't even think she knows of my existence

I browse but never buy and that's my stupor
But she's the kind of girl to sell your soul for
Every time I catch a glimpse of her is not enough
I always want more

Can you imagine what it would be like to be her passion
Something of value in her life
It would be heaven for the likes and love of me
But I'm not sure that she's aware of my existence

My heart could miss a beat it's met its measure
She's not the kind of girl to love at leisure
Every night I visualise her face
And guess at all those hidden pleasures

Can you imagine what it would be like to be her passion
Something of value in her life
It would be heaven for the likes and love of me
But I'm quite certain that it's never going to be

Can you imagine what it would be like to be her passion
Something of value in her life
It would be heaven to the likes and love of me
But I'm quite sure she's unaware of my existence
