I can always try to forget, somehow, what's a part of the past.
Have a little laughter if you please, I won't even mind if it takes awhile.
I've got time on my hands, I feel another chapter in the breeze.
Somebody touched my heart string, somebody made my heart sing,
Somebody stole my heart away, nobody's saying their sorry.
It's a mighty sweet music, you can dance all night.
Put some wood on the fire right now, ecstasy made easy.
Ecstasy I ask you, are you a name or just another patron with a smile?
Let me analyze you, are you a flame or just the dying embers of a kiss run wild?
Somebody touched my heart string, somebody made my heart sing,
Somebody stole my heart away, nobody's saying their sorry.
It's a mighty sweet music, take a chance they say.
Put some fire on the old iron stove, ecstasy made easy, made easy.
I hope I never lose what belongs to me by the right of my birth at midnight, sailing out of Perth.
Getting under way we turned her westward bound on that southern sea,
To see what ecstasy was worth.
