|
They say "Drink and be merry, |
|
Take the bull by the horns." |
|
I keep seeing visions of you, a lily among thorns |
|
Everything looks a little far away to me |
|
|
|
Gettin' harder and harder to recognize the trap |
|
Too much information about nothin' |
|
Too much educated rap |
|
It's just like you told me, just like you said it would be |
|
|
|
The moon rising like wildfire |
|
I feel the breath of a storm |
|
Something I got to do tonight |
|
You go inside and stay warm |
|
|
|
Someone's got a hold of my heart |
|
Someone's got a hold of my heart |
|
Someone's got a hold of my heart |
|
You- |
|
Yeah, you got a hold of my heart |
|
|
|
Just got back from a city of powder blue skies |
|
Everybody thinks with their stomach |
|
There's plenty of spies |
|
Every street is crooked, they just wind around till they disappear |
|
|
|
Madame Butterfly, she lulls me to sleep |
|
Like an ancient river |
|
So wide and deep |
|
She said, "Be easy, baby, ain't nothin' worth stealin' here" |
|
|
|
You're the one I've been waitin' for |
|
You're the one I desire |
|
But you must first realize |
|
I'm not another man for hire |
|
|
|
Someone's got a hold of my heart |
|
Someone's got a hold of my heart |
|
Someone's got a hold of my heart |
|
You, you, you, you |
|
Yeah, you got a hold of my heart |
|
|
|
I hear the hot-blooded singer |
|
On the bandstand croon |
|
September Song, Memphis in June |
|
While they're beating the devil out of a guy who's wearing a flaming red wig |
|
|
|
I been to Babylon |
|
I gotta confess |
|
I can still hear that voice crying in the wilderness |
|
What looks large from a distance, close up is never that big |
|
Never could learn to drink that blood and call it wine |
|
Never could learn to look at your face and call it mine. |
|
|
|
Someone's got a hold of my heart |
|
Someone's got a hold of my heart |
|
Someone's got a hold of my heart |
|
You- |
|
Yeah, you got a hold of my heart |
