Kathleen
(Anderson)

Kathleen
The force of your eyes blows my mind
I shouldn't confess, but I find you captivating
I'm caught in your smile

But if you insist on being distant
I'll regret I never spent my youth
I'd like to get to know you
Still, I wonder what life you have got
How the world can bear your glances
Take your time and, Kathleen,
Please take mine

You seem that you've always been wild
An anonymous past for a child without a childhood
Thrown into life
But as you grow dear, these days show clearer scenes
Of something that may be more true
Than what you put your head through
Still I wonder what you hope to know
Where you go to seek your sanity
Take your time and, Kathleen,
Please take mine

But if you insist on being distant
I'll regret I never spent my youth
I'd like to get to know you
Still, I wonder what life you have got
How the world can bear your glances
Take your time and, Kathleen,
Please take mine.
