[Verse 1]
With freckles as sparkling as yours
Who could dare to un-sparkle your dots?
A face as unreasonably adorable as yours
Who could dare to thoughtlessly smudge your cheek?
With black hair as infinite as yours
What could dare to bar your passage through the void?

[Chorus]
I have done almost nothing right
My entire adult life
But having dared to touch the fire with you
Breaks the chain of my being nothing too

[Verse 2]
Indiscretions as startling as yours
Who could dare to explain them as wrong or right?
With invention as amusing as yours
Who could dare to remain uninvolved?
With secrecy as bewildering as yours
What could insist on penetrating?

[Chorus]
I have done almost nothing right
My entirе adult life
But having dared to touch the firе with you
Breaks the chain of my being nothing
