The Lover Speaks - Still Faking This Art of Love

Stampeding feelings is an art today,
Cry nervous flirtings of a modern sonneteer,
Valentino eyes - such a drama!
That haunting smile,
Could it try to be more charming?

(It's an icy fire flame....)
More charming
(...makes a beau a stylish blade)

Still faking this art of love
Still faking....
This art of love

Trojan Valentine cards
The sun at dawn
Breathless gaspings
of an ageing troubadour
Inside those arms, such safety!
This splendid scene
Could I sketch a piece more charming

(It's an icy fire flame....)
More charming
(...makes a beau a stylish blade)

Still faking this art of love
Still faking.....
This art of love

More passion
Many a pillow book weekend
More passion, more.....passion

(It's a voice) "Oh I've never felt like...."
(It's a voice) "Oh I'll never do..."
(It's a voice) "Oh"

Still faking this art of love
Still faking.....
This art of love
