Call It What You Will



Call It What You Will

A cheap thrill
 Onto the vast duration of time
 Red, yellow & black
 Working so hard can give you a heart attack

 We make plans then break plans
 Will it ever end it all depends
 A challenge to be free is a question of time
 A spade it still a spade

 A leopard doesn't change its spots
 Mark the one willing to explore
 A chance to see so much more
 A tug at the heart will light the spark

 You got something that everybody loves
 Don't look at yourself it comes from above
 To treasure a red rose that was plucked a time ago
 The soft decorum of a quaint romantic kiss

 Run to love else it will be a sure fire miss
