Day Eleven: Love - Ayreon

There she was, out of the blue

Thunderstruck, nailed to the floor

I couldn’t move, couldn’t talk… anymore

(Love) Of all these guys it’s you she desires

Secretly her heart is on fire

Waiting for you to ask her to dance

Go ahead, make your move… now’s your chance

(Passion) Do it right, do it right, we ain’t got all night

Do it now, do it now, I think you know how

(Pride) Let it out, let it out, now don’t mess about

Let her in, let her in, let the party begin!

(Me) There I was, nervous and shy

Struck with awe as I caught her eye

I mustered up courage and walked her way

Figuring out what to do… what to say

(Love) Her heart sings as she sees you come near

The music fades, the crowd disappears

She weeps in silence as you pass her by

And she’s wondering why… oh why

(Passion) Do it right, do it right, we ain’t got all night

Do it now, do it now, I think you know how

(Pride) Let it out, let it out, now don’t mess about

Let her in, let her in, let the party begin!

(Agony) Remember your father, well you’re just like him

Nothing but violence and fury within

Remember your mother, so lonely and sad

This will be her fate if you treat her as bad

(Fear) You’re afraid she might turn you down

All your hopes, dashed to the ground

Nobody loved you, nobody will

Why should you even try… but still…

(Me) Friday night, I had a few

(Wife) There was no need to talk

(Me) There she was, out of the blue

(Wife) We just started to walk

(Me) Hand in hand, we took the floor

(Wife) And we danced, and we danced, and we danced

(Me) I could move, I could talk… even more…

(Passion) Do it right, do it right, we ain’t got all night

Do it now, do it now, I think you know how

(Pride) Let it out, let it out, now don’t mess about

Let her in, let her in, let the party begin!

(Agony) Remember your father, well you’re just like him

Nothing but violence and fury within

Remember your mother, so lonely and sad

This will be her fate if you treat her as bad
