seen him standing in the street
Just waiting for the next affair
I've seen him waiting in the wings
When the warning buzzer starts to ring
He'll break a light glass and caress
To insist that she kiss and be blessed
The big test, the big test
Feelings are stealing your heart away
Feelings are stealing your heart away
the need's growing stronger
Can't hold back any longer
The hand is quicker than the eye
Present closer than the past
He took her once, he took her twice
Then he laid her body down
Stroking gently on the stairs
The blushing roses turned to brown
And mixed with the air and the heat
In the noise of the street
In the dust of what must be complete
To have need, to have need
Feelings are stealing your heart away
the need's growing stronger
Can't hold back any longer
Back to the kids and the wife
She likes him worse than before
He counts the minutes on his hand
To be charmed in the arms of a whore
To be free with the need to be more
To want more, to want more
Feelings are stealing your
Feelings are stealing your heart away
the need's growing stronger
I can't hold back any longer
Feelings are stealing your heart
