(daryl hall)



I like to read and I like to write

But you could persuade me to put the book down tonight

Just please don't ask to be a song heroine

It's not that easy just to stick you instick you in

Oh babeI know you're right

But there's no time and it's not the night

I'd have to face you again and again

Although you know I'd like to stick you instick you in



They're all sacred songs

They're not easily won

You know the words just seem to live on

The thoughts are sacred

Though the sound is profane

But this and that you know they're

One and the same

One and the same

One and the one and the same



You never know how you're gonna end

I start out hard and I end up thin

You waste your time but you occasionally score

But you can't tell from what went down beforedown before

Oh babedo you see my point? 

There's just no time and it's not the night

I'd have to face you again and again

Although you know I'd like to stick it instick it in



They're all sacred songs

They're not easily won

You know the words just seem to live on

The thoughts are sacred

Though the sound is profane

But this and that you know they're

One and the same

One and the same

One and the one and the same
