Ferron - Harmless Love lyrics

rate me

what's the matter with harmless<br />

take a new step in an old direction<br />

if you think about tenderness<br />

what's the matter with harmless love<br />

<br />

i take a little walk outside<br />

in a town that brings me <br />

pears and peaches<br />

i'm busting with love inside<br />

and it's always more than it ever teaches<br />

on the curb i pass a friend of mine<br />

we seem a little older maybe a little wiser<br />

we laugh about the shades of time<br />

and marvel at love, the great skyrider<br />

<br />

what's the matter with harmless<br />

(harmless)<br />

take a new step in an old direction<br />

if you think about tenderness<br />

(think about, think about a little tenderness)<br />

what's the matter with a hand-on-a-hand affection<br />

do you dream about a new day<br />

(harmless)<br />

you gotta dream about something strong and simple<br />

(dream)<br />

"each and every" is a kind thing to say<br />

what's the matter with harmless love<br />

<br />

you play it cool and then you love someone<br />

you try to fight it but kind love knows<br />

you tell yourself you're in it just for fun<br />

but ain't it funny how good love shows<br />

you know how to tell a joke in troubled times<br />

pass the sugar on a cold dark night<br />

spend a nickel just to save that dime<br />

toward a winter that will bite just right<br />

<br />

what's the matter with harmless<br />

(harmless)<br />

take a new step in an old direction<br />

if you think about tenderness<br />

(think about, think about a little tenderness)<br />

what's the matter with a hand-on-a-hand affection<br />

do you dream about a new day<br />

(harmless)<br />

you gotta dream about something strong and simple<br />

(dream)<br />

"each and every" is a kind thing to say<br />

what's the matter with harmless love<br />

<br />

light a candle for softness<br />

light a candle for friends til they come thru<br />

light a candle for warm, kind love<br />

light a candle for me and you<br />

'cause there's a reason we've come here<br />

are we holding back or are we willing for a connection<br />

while knowing what we hold most dear<br />

must eventually surrender to it's own direction<br />

<br />

what's the matter with harmless<br />

(harmless)<br />

take a new step in an old direction<br />

you think about tenderness<br />

(think about, think about a little tenderness)<br />

what's the matter with a hand-on-a-hand affection<br />

do you dream about a new day<br />

(harmless)<br />

you gotta dream about something strong and simple<br />

(dream)<br />

"each and every" is a kind thing to say<br />

what's the matter with harmless love
