‘Stealth So Deep (Dorian)'
You never talk about yourself
But you transmit signals like
A submarine, lost in the swell
Of the ocean, in the night
Your impenetrably fortified
And clandestine attitude
Is unwittingly betrayed by
Deep, green eyes that scream the truth
Dorian, it's been so long
Bad times are gone
You are the one – tell me I'm wrong
Dorian
My heart is aching, my soul is true
I would never do anything to
Harm, madden, sadden or bring you bad news
You leave no entry open
So I guess you'll be shocked to find
That the location of your emotion
Is all too easy to divine
I can sense your fear
In the caution, so fine-tuned;
With the rare words that you steer
Your sparse communication through
Dorian, it's been so long
Bad times are gone
You are the one – tell me I'm wrong
Dorian
My heart is aching, my soul is true
I would never do anything to
Hurt, distress, depress or give you issues
And you're hanging with the boys, looking cool by the pool…
You may think I'm fooling myself
But I can positively tell
That, deep inside your shell
You burn in an isolated hell
And I just need to let you know
That coming up won't turn your blood to foam
And for my sins, I'm here to show
You that love is close
And that you're really not alone
Dorian, it's been so long
Bad times are gone
You are the one – tell me I'm wrong
Dorian
My heart is aching, my soul is true
I would never do anything to
Harm, madden, sadden or bring you bad news
My heart is aching, my soul is true
I would never do anything to
Hurt, distress, depress or give you issues
My body's shaking - my hands cold, lips blue
All I want is to hold and kiss you
All I want is to hold, be with you.
