Well it’s the classic case you’ve heard
The rebel steals a heart
And she to whom the theft occurred
Has acted out her part
‘Cause half of her ennobled soul
Has been suppressed to form the whole
And while she doesn’t doubt her stance,
Her values: they’re her choice,
Youth’s an excuse to take the chance
‘Taste his vibrating voice
For she knows better, after all
Than climb so high, to take the fall
Yet once the deed has passed away
The longing doesn’t fail
And every idle thought will stray
To recommence the tale
And what she’d fancied one-and-done
Took up a res’dence with the sun.
So maiden’s, watch your darker half
Don’t keep her left behind
Or she will take a different path
And who knows what she’ll find
For stolen kisses go so far
That she’ll lose sight of where you are.
And with the dawn you’ll wake to see
Your verve is split in two
And everything you thought you’d be
Is only part of what is ‘you’
Self-love is key, along with reason
To stifle one, is naught but treason.
