Stardust

Honey I know you wanted me to be a jerk
I know you wanted me to be an ass
Honey I guess I lost my nerve
To be cruel to you was just too much to ask
Well everybody thinks that I’m a real laid-back dude
But I’m a bundle of nerves yeah I’m a walkin' talkin' spaz
But honey when you look at me the way you do
Brings a calm all over me like nuthin' ever has
Is that glitter on your face?
Or just Stardust from your eyes?
Or have I drank too much tonight?
Heard Poets talk of love
But I’m scared to jinx or say
That it could happen this a way
It’s true that I’ve been tough to tie down
Come on strong and then I fade from my advance
I can see you got your own ways to protect yourself and how
You’d hit the red button if heartache had a thread of a chance
You gotta big blag dog with a big deep ole growl
You shoot at my feet just to back me up and watch me dance
But you were talking big he’s just a puppy and you were shootin' at the ground
I promise not to fade if you don’t sabotage this romance
