A sidelong glance turns to a gaze, inciting dreams of wonder
It’s everywhere and all the time, from here to way down under

Anxious insecurity; an unsure breathless smile
Try to speak but words won’t come, so wait a little while

The very young and very old, and all folks in-between
Have lived out these scenarios, and know what these words mean

The common thread that we all share; the one thing that’s required
Is we all need someone to love, we want to be desired
