"On The Attack" Lyrics

It's taken so long
So long to be
To measure the man
I hoped I would be

I take a step forward
I take two steps back
I can't help but be bored
Unless I'm on the attack
And attacking's alright

We were up on the hill
Where the blueberries grow
With time to kill
I started to fall

And it got hard to breathe
And it got hard to relax
It's hard to face yourself
When you're still busy looking back
And attacking's alright

My love, please understand
My love, please understand
We're alone in this world
Doing all we can

To find somebody
To love and to hold
With a good, warm heart
'Cause it's getting cold

Honey please
Try and understand
It's time
To love your man

I met a blonde girl
She took me into her bed
I wanted her body
She wanted me dead

On a cool summer evening
I awoke from a dream
Scared of something that was
Inside of me

My love, please understand
Jessie my love, please understand
We're alone in this world
Every woman, every man

Trying to find somebody
To love and to hold
With a good warm heart
'Cause it's getting cold

Honey please
Try and understand
It's time
To love your man
