So hesitation pulled me back
I'm stronger when i don't attract
In your eyes i'm a lamb without a rack
And i am getting confused
I'm a cactus trying to be a canoe
As you pan for ore
In the desert, floored
I say to you

That i could never imagine a place so beautiful
I could never steal your gold away.

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah...

(i try to walk like a big wham bam
I came across like a battering ram
I try to float like a telegram sam
I'm trying to divine you.)

My book is called "the ascent of man"
I marked your chapter with a catamaran
The accent's off
But i am what i am

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah...

(i try to walk like a big wham bam
I came across like a battering ram
I try to float like a telegram sam
I'm trying to divine you.)

I looked for you, it's my last grandstand
A motorscootered goat legged pan
Figure eighting in quicksand ...

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah...

(i try to walk like a big wham bam
I try to float like a telegram sam
I came across like a battering ram
I'm trying to divine you.)

(i try to walk like a big wham bam
I try to float like a telegram sam
I came across like a battering ram
I'm trying to divine you.)

So hesitation pulled me back
I'm so in love i don't attract
And with my hands tied i won't crack
('cause in my mind i called you back.)
