Stolen moments...
Stolen moments...
If I told you I love you, pretty baby
Would it make up for what they say?
If I hold you and shield you, darlin`
Will you linger awhile today?
If I hold you and hug you
My kissin` won`t bug you
The gossips won`t hurt you
I`ll never desert you
And someday will find us
Where people won`t bind us
To the hands of time
I can use more than moments, pretty baby
And I know where you steal them from
There are so many things I`ll teach you
And they call me a useless bum
They just chatter and clatter
And patter and matter
They titter and twitter
Their glitter gets bitter
But we`re here
I steered here
It`s weird here
Those beards, dear
Watch the pantomime
Watch the pantomime
