Anyone else feeling "Silver Tongue"?

Great, great vocal performance. Evocative keys. A stand-out work.

Haunting, lyrical, melancholy, sweet...


Can't get it out of my head.

Can anyone check these lyrics for me? This is the best I could do...
-----
Love me while you watch the time
and if I falter or lose my rhyme
you will drop me like useless dime
cause you ain't no friend of mine, no, no.

Steer me wrong and drop me off
From a swan dive to a belly flop
The shallow waters that flood your heart
will forever keep us apart....

You never cease to amaze me
sometimes I just don't understand, (no, no).
The Chances you took to play your hand
But you never took my love when it was here.

My heart's been thrown a thousand times
like a **** upon the vine.
The shiny promise that fades with time
But the seeds are sown and they're hard to find

Such a safe way to lose someone, (oh yes it is)
To live by better said than done
Some can dance and hide your gun
From those who buy the silver from your tongue.

And you never cease to amaze me, (uh-uh)
Sometimes I just don't understand, (I don't)
the chances you took to play your hand
but you never took my love when it was here


The song and dance
that hide your gun
from those who buy the silver from your
tongue...

Some people tell me I've got great legs...

like a **** upon the vine. [like a faded fruit upon the vine]
The shiny promise that fades with time
But the seeds are sown and they're hard to find[But the seeds are sown and the heart defined]

Such a safe way to lose someone, (oh yes it is) [such a sad way to lose someone]
To live by better said than done
Some can dance and hide your gun [the song and dance that hides your gun]
From those who buy the silver from your tongue.
