The Cure for Evil

It took a little time
It took a little wine
To make a window
To make you mine

It took a little look
that made you shudder
It took a little tear
to draw you near

But all the while
you knew your smile
would make it easy
to fall in love

It took a little word
A stupid something
to make you hold me
to make you cling

It took a little stroke
from my hand
to make you kiss me
to understand

But all the while
you knew your smile
would make it easy
to fall in love

Will you want me if I grow boring?
Will you want me if I grow ill?
Will you want me if I grow colder?
Will you want me, will you kiss me still?

There's far too many ideals
Fighting for the airtime
I was shameful back in '96
But I'm not so careless now

And all those brutal discos
That taught me how to pine
I have no regrets for what I did
But I regret I had the time

Will you want me? (Don't be careless)
Is it too late? (Take your time)
Will you want me? (For I told you)
Don't hesitate (Wait a while)
I've been spiteful (Rest your head and figure)
You've been kind (The reason why)
Will you want me (There's no point in lying)
In six weeks' time? (You saw me smile)

When you're in the bathroom
And when you've locked the door
I'm dirty in the bedroom
I've not felt this way before

Don't let my hands go idle
When I feel this much for you
Can't you tell this much is true
The way I hold you?

And if I sometimes seem ungrateful
If I doubted you sometimes
If I called you by the wrong name
I was out of my tiny mind

'Cause you are the one with sexy shoes
You frazzled my mind, I forgot what I knew
Oh you are the one
So console me

Will you want me?
Is it too late?
Will you want me?
Don't hesitate
