You can't hold it too tight
These matters of security
You don't have to be wound so tight
Smoking on the balcony
But it's like sleaze in the park
You women, you have no self-control 
The angels remark outside
You were known for insatiable needs
I don't know a thing

I've seen love
And I follow the speed in the starlight
I've seen love 
And I follow the speed in the star-swept night

Yeah, pace is the trick
And to all the destruction in man
Well, I see you as you take your pride, my lioness
Your defenses seem wise
I cannot press
And detentions are demised, my lioness
Can't you hurt it some, think I hurt it

I've seen love 
And I follow the speed in the starlight
I've seen love 
And I follow the speed in the star-swept night

And now I select you, slow now to let you
See how I stun, see how I stun
And now I select you, slow now, I bet you
See how I stun, see how I stun

And to all the destruction in man
And to all the corruption in my hand

And now I select you, slow now to let you
See how I stun, see how I stun
And now I select you, slow now I've let you
See how I stun, see how I stun 
And now I select you, slow now to let you
See how I stun, see how I stun
And now I select you, slow now to let you
I always follow the speed in the star-swept night

You don't hold a candle 
You don't hold a candle 
You don't hold a candle
