|
When the moon is rising and the night is still |
|
Some of my delusions have the power to kill |
|
Scared I'll get what I deserve |
|
Or maybe scared I won't |
|
I'm sitting in my garage staring at my motorcycle |
|
My heart is so heavy, like a stack of Bibles |
|
Swear I need you too much |
|
Baby, I swear I don't |
|
'Cause sometimes love can be so wrong |
|
Like a fat man in a thong |
|
It was shamelessly awake |
|
I hold a seashell to my ear |
|
And winds of echoed dreams I hear |
|
Reverberations of yesterday |
|
I can be rough |
|
Sometimes I can be tender |
|
But I can't negotiate |
|
The terms of my surrender |
|
I love you too much, babe |
|
Go on and have your way with me |
|
Well, emperors and reigning kings |
|
Have showered you with golden rings |
|
Now I stand with my hat in my hand |
|
I know that I can't compete |
|
With ruthless men and satin sheets |
|
But I'm ready to meet your demands |
|
Words of glory, and ashes and dust |
|
At the end of the story there's just us |
|
I love you too much, baby |
|
To ever say goodbye |
