Human Shield Lyrics & Chords By Nothing Painted Blue

If I had an ounce of charm

I would take you by the arm

And you would not resist the pull

I know it sounds improbable

But it happens every day to people

Just like you and me

If I had a lick of sense

I would wear down your defense

And kiss you while your eyes are shut

I know it sounds unlikely but

It's still the only way two people

Share one frequency

Tell me now, before you ask your agents in the field

Why you hold your body like a weapon you can wield

As a human shield

I see you sitting on the couch

I see you fiddle with your blouse

I watch you take a sip of tea

I can't believe it's up to me

The planets kiss/the seasons shift

The major fall/the minor lift

The winter coats/the summer skirts

The autumn leaves/the springtime flirts

If I could overcome my fear

Then this could be a banner year

And it happens every day to people

And what else can you say to people

Just like you and me?
