Leaning on a blade of grass Looking for support I got my head in the lion's mouth I got my feet on thin ice Oh that spells danger Will I get compensation When you break my soul Will I get anxious For a little affection Oh I feel danger I don't want to cry too soon Don't want to sound the alarm A lonely pedestrian Walking in the night And there's no need to run Cost I'm following behind And I don't want I don't want I don't want to misunderstand Am I the prize The laurel and the rose Will you use me well Or will I see hell That's the danger I don't want to cry too soon Don't want to sound the alarm A lonely pedestrian Walking in the night And there's no need to run Cost I'm following behind And I don't want I don't want I don't want to misunderstand But I feel there's some danger And I know that you're the source Well I could try to run But I'm sure you've got the speed And I can't say I can't say I can't say I'd fight you to win I don't want to cry too soon Don't want to sound the alarm But I feel there's some danger And I know that you're the source Well I could try to run But I'm sure you've got the speed And I can't say I can't say I can't say I'd fight you to win So I'll just face the danger I don't want to cry too soon Don't want to sound the alarm I don't want to cry too soon Don't want to sound the alarm
