Darling don't be afraid
I'll get there one day
And we can be alone together
I'll be brave enough to find you
And tell you I love you
And we can be alone forever
Once we achieved all our dreams
We can live peacefully
In the English countryside by your side
Our impenetrable fortress no one will get inside
I'll walk with you in a nice dress so no one will know I've cried
Never satisfied where I am but it's better than where I was
I'll ask the poets about love
I know little 'bout romance
But it's all I talk about
Darling please hold my hand
For it's what I can't go without
Forced to abide a public masquerade
Turns into a marvelous charade
We'll disobey, we'll run away to
Our impenetrable fortress no one will get inside
I'll walk with you in a nice dress so no one will know I've cried
Never satisfied where I am but it's better than where I was
I'll ask the poets about love.
They're supposed to know a lot
I haven't lived long enough to not be ambivalent
Still I'd like to think that I'm not an innocent.
I pretend to know everything and it's exhausting darling, oh darling
Our impenetrable fortress no one will get inside
I'll walk with you in a nice dress so no will no I've cried
Never satisfied where I am but it's better than where I was
I'll ask the poets about love
I'll ask the poets about love
