So hesitation pulled me back
i'm stronger when i don't attract
in your eyes i'm a lamb without a rack
and i am getting confused.
i'm a cactus trying to be a canoe.
as you pan for ore
in the desert, floored,
i say to you.
That i could never imagine a place so beautiful
i could never steal your gold away.
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah...
[i try to walk like a big wham bam
i came across like a battering ram
i try to float like a telegram sam
i'm trying to divine you. ]
My book is called "the ascent of man".
i marked your chapter with a catamaran.
the accent's off,
but i am what i am.
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah...
[i try to walk like a big wham bam
i came across like a battering ram
i try to float like a telegram sam
i'm trying to divine you.]
I looked for you, it's my last grandstand.
a motorscootered goat legged pan
figure eighting in quicksand...
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah...
[i try to walk like a big wham bam
i try to float like a telegram sam
i came across like a battering ram
i'm trying to divine you. ]
[i try to walk like a big wham bam
i try to float like a telegram sam

So hesitation pulled me back
i'm so in love i don't attract.
and with my hands tied i won't crack
['cause in my mind i called you back.]
