Weak In The Presence Of Beauty

Alison Moyet

It's a long time since I saw you

well



you know how time can fly.

It seems like yesterday we were lovers



now we pass each other by.

But if we're left alone tonight

don't ask me to hold you tight.



I go weak

I go weak

I go weak



I go weak

weak in the presence of beauty.



All of my friends keep asking why

I'm quiet when you're around.

But they don't know I think

I'm so lucky to stop myself from falling down.



So later if you're on your own

Don't ask me to take you home.

I go weak

I go weak

I go weak

. . .



'Cause if we're left alone tonight

I have no choice but to hold you tight.

I go weak

I go weak

I go weak

. . .

I go weak

I go weak

I go weak

. . .

I go weak

I go weak

I go weak
