Take it if you will

Take it if you can -

Or refuse it - I will understand

It's just some flowers

My family just moved in around the corner

Will you be my friend

I touched her on the shoulder

She was fourteen I was barely older



Take it if you will

Take it if you can -

Or refuse it - I will understand

It's just a key

My parents are going away for the weekend

Will you stay with me

It felt my body trembling

High school days were nearly at an end then



Chorus:

Time was a blur of emotions

Spinning so fast

And time was a rocket engine

With no end and no beginning

But all time stopped when she said "yes"



Take it if you will

Take it if you can

Or refuse it - you know I'll never ask again

It's just a ring

At best it's just a symbol of everything

If I can share my life with you

Standing naked in my fear

I could not face her

Then I broke down - my arms embraced her



Repeat chorus



Take it if you will

Take it if you can

Or refuse it

That's how our lives began
