I’ll Steal Your Heart
2020© by John Schofield

On that makeshift stage beside the bar
I watch you sing and play guitar
You avoid my eye but I know you see
That you and me were meant to be

When you leave the bar and head for home
You walk where freaks and junkies roam
But you’re safe because I’m guarding you
I know you’ll learn to love me soon

It’s only time my darling
That’s keeping us apart
I’m patient and I’ll give you time
But eventually I’ll steal your heart

I’m certain that you’ve yearned for me
And soon I know you’ll learn to be
Both my lover and my secret friend
I know that’s how this all will end

It’s only time my darling
That’s keeping us apart
I’m patient and I’ll give you time
But eventually I’ll steal your heart
