The Fence

Lyrics by Wilton. Music by Dittrich, Powell and Wilton. Arranged by Dwarf Nebula.

What is going on? I caught you staring at me.
But you’ve got yourself a guy: Couldn’t be plainer to see
Whenever you’re around me I can see you shakin’
I probably would be too except I knew you were taken

You caught my eye from the very first glance
But I had to play it cool: couldn’t make my advance
Secretly I’ve had to watch you from afar
But I’m startin’ to wonder if the door has become a jar

Chorus:

True love is dangerous. It takes you out of control
Cross over any boundary that can be imposed
It can bring light to darkness or betray confidences
Bring out your strongest traits or leave you defenseless


I thought I had been able to put you out of my mind
I’m not running into you so often. I thought it was fine
But there’s a spark that I can see now when I look in your eyes.
And I find it’s taking me completely by surprise.

You check me out but keep me in check. You have all the moves
It’s not my style to cut in. Been there. Either way we lose.
But I can’t take another of your nervous compliments
Without taking action to see if you’ll fall off of the fence

(Chorus)
