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. ]

   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.]
