The Usual Bravura
*- Tydon Docks
*
Well, I swagger into the room
Showing off more front than Myer's
Dropping platitudes and bombs around
Like a rat with a new gold tooth
And with the usual bravura
I take command of all that I survey
And I pray the cracks in my facade
Do not crumble into dust

But just one look from you
Makes me wonder what I'm doing here
And my confidence erodes
Leaving me with just one question

Could I be the one?
Could I be the one?
Could I be the one?
Could I be the only one?

For class and sophistication
I know I pale by comparison
But masks are not just for superheroes
That's one thing that I know
And with the usual bravura
I 'll try to punch above my weight again
And then, keep my guard up
So my glass jaw doesn't show

But just one look from you
Will strip away the self-protective shield
And I'm naked like a babe
Trying to find the answer to just one question

Could I be the one?
Could I be the one?
Could I be the one?
Could I be the only one for you?

I'll put my best foot forward
Bring my A-Game to the fore
Give it all that I've got
And maybe just a little more
There is no time for questioning
There is no time for doubt
It's not the time for hiding
I gotta spit it out

Could I be the one?
Could I be the one?
Could I be the one?
Could I be the only one for you?

Got no time for questioning
Got no time for doubt
Got no time for hiding
I just gotta spit it out
It's A-game time
Gonna give it all I got
Could I be the only one
For you?
