David roth lend your heart to love[00:00:00]

On the floor of some motel room down in florida one spring[00:00:02]

I fell victim to the charms of nanci goldman[00:00:05]

We'd kissed a lot in high school[00:00:10]

That's as far as it had gone[00:00:12]

And I was sure I'd be a virgin as an old man[00:00:14]

All too nervous and naively I believe we said goodnight[00:00:20]

The next thing that I knew she was above me[00:00:24]

Her eyes were full of fire[00:00:29]

Somehow mine were full of fear[00:00:30]

I fell silent when she asked me do you love me[00:00:33]

We never did a thing that night[00:00:40]

I've often wished we had[00:00:42]

How often do you get a chance to touch someone like that[00:00:45]

I don't mean in clumsy passion or that lonely lover's shove[00:00:49]

But that moment when you lend your heart to love[00:00:56]

That summer I was living at the house of my best friend[00:01:08]

And one day he introduced his girlfriend's cousin[00:01:12]

To say that I fell hopelessly in awe of patti jo[00:01:17]

Would largely understate the state I was in[00:01:21]

We were laying round the living room one steamy August night[00:01:26]

The next thing that I knew I was above her[00:01:30]

My eyes were full of fire[00:01:35]

Somehow hers were full of fear[00:01:37]

Neither one of us had ever had a lover[00:01:40]

We never did a thing that night[00:01:46]

I wonder if we had[00:01:48]

If a dose of clumsy passion could have really been so bad[00:01:51]

But she was scared and so was I[00:01:56]

And neither sure what of[00:01:59]

I guess that moment when you lend your heart to love[00:02:02]

I only mentioned nanci for the feelings she unlocked[00:02:10]

And patti was so pretty[00:02:15]

But we never even talked[00:02:17]

Now both of them are married[00:02:21]

No redress and no regrets[00:02:23]

I was only warming up for what was next[00:02:27]

In the kitchen of my sister's fifth floor walk up in new york[00:02:38]

I sat staring in the gaze of mary fisher[00:02:42]

Never had I fallen on such gentle[00:02:48]

Gentile eyes[00:02:51]

And never such an urge as then to kiss her[00:02:53]

We were fumbling through the small talk silence[00:02:57]

Grasping every straw[00:03:00]

The next thing that I knew we were embracing[00:03:02]

I don't know why but somehow I knew this was what I'd missed[00:03:07]

I could tell just by the way my heart was racing[00:03:12]

We stayed up talking all night long[00:03:19]

That's mostly what we did[00:03:21]

And when the sun came up we stumbled to the subway like two kids[00:03:24]

And that's when I began to learn what we'd been talking of[00:03:30]

About that moment when you lend your heart to love[00:03:35]

If you're lucky maybe once in life you'll have the chance to find[00:03:44]

Someone to give your heart to whose reciprocally inclined[00:03:49]

You'll never know it's coming and you won't know what to say[00:03:55]

Just drop everything you're doing on that day[00:04:01]

And don't you ever let that moment slip away[00:04:11]
