Take it if you will
   Take it if you can -
   Or refuse it - I will understand
   It's just some flowers
   My family just moved in around the corner
   Will you be my friend
   I touched her on the shoulder
   She was fourteen I was barely older
  
   Take it if you will
   Take it if you can -
   Or refuse it - I will understand
   It's just a key
   My parents are going away for the weekend
   Will you stay with me
   It felt my body trembling
   High school days were nearly at an end then
  
   Chorus:
   Time was a blur of emotions
   Spinning so fast
   And time was a rocket engine
   With no end and no beginning
   But all time stopped when she said "yes"
  
   Take it if you will
   Take it if you can
   Or refuse it - you know I'll never ask again
   It's just a ring
   At best it's just a symbol of everything
   If I can share my life with you
   Standing naked in my fear
   I could not face her
   Then I broke down - my arms embraced her
  
   Repeat Chorus
  
   Take it if you will
   Take it if you can
   Or refuse it
   That's how our lives began
