Love was watching it all
And not feeling too full
Love was overheated
Just before a stall
Just before a stall
Just before us all

Prefer to feel the escalator
Prefer the steel taper
Prefer

Love was almost ideal
And it was caught on a cellophane reel
Love stopped and slipped and skipped
Just before a stall

Prefer to feel the escalator
Prefer the steel taper
Prefer
