Take me if you need me

But never hold me down

You're asking me to trust you

Well there's little of that around

I'm trying to believe you

And I'm learning all the time

Two-part personality

The flower and the vine

Take me sleeping angel

Catch me when you can

Real love affairs are heavy spells

For a woman and a man

I need you because you let me breathe

Well you've taken me away

But never take me lightly

Or I could never stay

Well, someday when we're older

And my hair is silver gray

Unbraid with all of the love that you have

Like a soft silver chain

Oh, take me sleeping angel

Oh, catch me when you can

And unbraid with all the love that you have

Like a soft silver chain
