heart of a lion

You know love's a cruel game of charades
Never say what you're thinking, hope the other can translate
She wants a push when I'm thinking of pullin'
I'm getting serious and she thinks that I'm foolin'

I wanna love you baby, just tell me what you want
I'm tired of solving puzzles like an idiot savant
I'm begging you to help me, I'm down on my knees
Oh baby baby please....

(She said) You used to have the heart of a lion
Now you're not even tryin'
To win my love and affection
I used to cast the spells of a wizard
Now the best I can give her
Is sleight of hand and bad misdirection

You know that love's an academic pursuit
Put your heart under the microscope, reveal the truth
Earning your degree is especially pursuant
On convincing her you're absolutely fluent


I wanna get you back baby, make my return
But when I think about you honey, I forget everything I learned
I'm begging you to help me, I'm down on my knees
Oh baby baby please....

(She said) You used to have the heart of a lion
Now you're not even tryin'
To win my love and affection
I used to cast the spells of a wizard
Now the best I can give her
Is sleight of hand and bad misdirection

end.
