You're as hard to hold as quicksilver When you kiss and run away I dream you're mine and then as quick as quicksilver All my dreams are led astray
I keep chasing you till I'm facing you And embracing you with all your charms Then you slip through my fingers just like quicksilver Right into someone else's arms
Seems like I am havin' trouble with you And I don't know what I'm gonna do Seems like you're fickle, fickle as can be And your fickle ways have got me up a tree
