//verse 1 lyrics:
I have fallen foul of my desire
Striking while the iron’s in the fire
Taking ever more than I require
So forsaking love to be admired
//verse 2 lyrics:
Yet you cast your net when not one star was shining
Caught my eye upon your silver lining
Torn between resisting and resigning
Like a fly toward a flame inclining
[Chorus]

//verse 3 lyrics:
Darling I am not opposed to letting go this time
Though I fear I'll leave an eye still dangling on the line
There are far worse things I could expect to leave behind
Then to keep my heart intact and walk about half blind
