An Apparition
by Queens Club

Album: Young Giant

Hoops, hoops, always jumping through hoops
And tripping on the hedges
Tiptoe through fire, too sure to look behind
I ain't using using checks and balances
Youth had freed me
To run with the wolves and feast on the night
The hungry night, the hungry night

Maybe I just wanna be your man
How am I to put you down
If I'll just pick you up again?
Maybe I fear I can't taste your love now that I've decided
That I can't only be your friend

Move, make a move that you might be tempted again to feel
Anything that's wrong is right
When day has fled to night I've been there
Dan, there's nothing wrong
With a taste of a kiss that missed on love
And so it fainted
To be dismissed would be so sad

So I check you up and down
I've got a greater proposition
There's a simple way to fit the mold
You'll look a man on his mission

First, you'll spread yourself thin
Next, you can paint your face a pale white
Then, you'll let yourself through that door
And alas, you'll surely claim your prize

I'll bring you up to have a sweeter tooth and a deeper root
Until you're face to face with an apparition
The ghost that breathes lies is a greater danger, a perfect stranger
At last you've turned the light on
At last you've turned the light on

Maybe I just wanna be your man
How am I to put you down
If I'll just pick you up again?
Maybe I fear I can't taste your love now that I've decided
That I can't only be your friend
Oh, be mine
