Head Over Heels (Hughes 7" Edit)

I wanted to be with you alone

And talk about the weather

But traditions I can trace against the child in your face

Won't escape my attention

You keep your distance via the system of touch

And gentle persuasion

I'm lost in admiration, could I need you this much?

Oh, you're wasting my time

You're just, just, just wasting time

Something happens and I'm head over heels

I never find out till I'm head over heels

Something happens and I'm head over heels, ah

Don't take my heart, don't break my heart

Don't, don't, don't throw it away

Throw it away

Throw it away

I made a fire and watching it burn

Thought of your future

With one foot in the past, now just how long will it last?

No, no, no, have you no ambition?

My mother and my brothers, used to breathing clean air (Nothing ever changes when you're acting your age)

And dreaming I'm a doctor (Nothing gets done when you feel like a baby)

It's hard to be a man when there's a gun in your hand (Nothing ever changes when you're acting your age)

Oh, I feel so

Something happens and I'm head over heels

I never find out till I'm head over heels

Something happens and I'm head over heels, ah

Don't take my heart, don't break my heart

Don't, don't, don't throw it away

And this is my four leaf clover

I'm on the line, one open mind

This is my four leaf clover

In my mind's eye

One little boy, one little man

Funny how

Time flies...
