Lyrics

Alison, got the world in your gloved hand
And your hand in mine, your hand in mine
Alison, you could captivate the room
Even though you don't want to, no, you never do

I've never been discreet about anything
So all of your secrets are astonishing (why don't you tell me?)
Steady as the tide, steady as any cliché that you could come by
Steady as the light, steady as the Earth that gathers the light

You talk all about how we watch the world go by
Don't think about it, I'm so good at killing time
Tell me all of your secrets, you know that I wouldn't mind
Forget all our troubles, if only for a little while

For a little while
For a little while

Alison, got the world in your gloved hand
And your hand in mine, your hand in mine
Alison, hide out for a year, we could watch
The world go by, no, I wouldn't mind

I've never been discreet about anything
So all of your secrets are astonishing
Come on and tell me
(No, you can't, my love, hide forever)
(No, you can't, my love) can't hide forever

You have your dreams, and I have mine
And for a little while, they'll be intact
You have your dreams, and I have mine
And for a little while, they'll be intact

You talk all about how we watch the world go by
Don't think about it, I'm so good at killing time
Tell me all of your secrets, you know that I wouldn't mind
Forget all our troubles, if only for a little while

For a little while
For a little while
