Palpitations in Love

Cheerless Little Cherub

If you didn't know,
You reap what you sow.

I know your fighting the urge
To say I told you so,
When you should just let go.

The psychedelic pseudonyms
You masquerade behind,
And the cataclysmic chasms
You hide the wreck inside;

They're over flowing tonight.
And a cheerless little cherub
Opens up your mind.

He sings a silent song,
And you pretend to find
An underlying message,
Where one does not reside.

And if you'd be so kind
To heed your own advice,
Things may have been different Between him & you & I.

So I'll say goodnight,
And then I'll say goodbye.

For now your his angel,
So baby take flight
I promise I'll be alright.

It's just not my night,
And it's not my right
To step right in,
And cause some strife.

As long as your happy,
That's just fine.
I'm alright.

It must be nice
To be satisfied,
Tell me,
Are you satisfied?
Does he treat you right?

Baby I'm not a fighter
I get contrite,
But if I must,
I might
So can him & you,
Be you & I?
