|
please, baby, can't you see my mind's a burnin' hell |
|
i got razors a rippin' and tearin' and strippin' |
|
my heart apart as well |
|
tonight you told me that you ache for something new |
|
and some other woman is lookin' like something |
|
that might be good for you. |
|
go on and hold her 'til the screaming is gone |
|
go on, believe her when she tells you nothing's wrong |
|
but i'm the only one who'll walk across a fire for you |
|
and i'm the only one who'll drown in my desire for you |
|
it's only fear that makes you run |
|
the demons that you're hiding from |
|
when all your promises are gone, i'm the only one. |
|
please, baby, can't you see i'm trying to explain? |
|
i've been here before and i'm locking the door |
|
and i'm not going back again |
|
her eyes and arms and skin won't make it go away |
|
you'll wake up tomorrow and wrestle the sorrow |
|
that holds you down today. |
|
go on and hold her 'til the screaming is gone |
|
go on, believe her when she tells you nothing's wrong |
|
but i'm the only one who'll walk across a fire for you |
|
and i'm the only one who'll drown in my desire for you |
|
it's only fear that makes you run |
|
the demons that you're hiding from |
|
when all your promises are gone, i'm the only one. |
|
go on and hold her 'til the screaming is gone |
|
go on, believe her when she tells you nothing's wrong |
|
but i'm the only one who'll walk across a fire for you |
|
and i'm the only one who'll drown in my desire for you |
|
it's only fear that makes you run |
|
the demons that you're hiding from |
|
when all your promises are gone, i'm the only one. |
