Arrow

I wish I could fall in love Though it only leads to trouble, oh I know it does. Still I'd fool myself and gladly just to feel I was In love, in love. I wish I could feel my heartbeat rise And gaze into some gentle warm excited eyes, And give myself as truly as an arrow flies In endless skies. Oh, I remember you in the TV light Holding you close to me where we lay, And now I wish I knew some of those softer nights Whispering quietly, feeling you turn to me. It was only last night in the winter dark I dreamed of how you loved in all your innocence, And I've never known a softer warmer feeling since Or a truer heart. But maybe these dreams are leading me; Maybe love is not as gentle as my memory; Maybe time and wishful half remembered fantasies Are the greatest part. Oh, but I remember you in the TV light Holding you close to me where we lay, And now I wish I knew some of those softer nights Whispering quietly, feeling you turn to me. Wish I could feel my heartbeat rise And gaze into some gentle warm excited eyes, And give myself as truly as an arrow flies In endless skies. Oh, I wish I could fall in love Though it only leads to trouble, oh I know it does. Still I'd fool myself and gladly just to feel I was In love
