Jill Paice - Who Is This Man?

{GRAZIA}
Who is this man?
What is he to me?
Overwhelms my soul
How can that be?
He strips my feelings bare
And within his stare
Somehow I get lost eternally

Trying not to think of him, I fail
And beside him
All else seems to pale
Bolt out of the blue
Inconvenient too!
And absolutely riveting my senses
Breaking down the last of my defenses

I cannot hide what I feel from Sirki
Play that role
Ev'ry tossed-off word he utters
Takes its toll
Somehow I can't keep
My promise to Corrado
Waiting in the wings
To hold an eager bride
For thеre's another person
Who keeps looming into viеw
What if I'm a firefly he's caught?
Glowing on the edges of his thought
Dear prince, what would my life be
If I loved you?
