[00:18.480] |
Lend me an ear I'll tell you a story |
[00:23.840] |
'Bout a man who didn't know how to be |
[00:27.480] |
Joined a travellin' circus from PEI to BC |
[00:32.670] |
I was playing dead every morning |
[00:40.270] |
I was taking dives every night |
[00:45.090] |
Someone came and swept me off my feet in midflight |
[00:53.190] |
Now without a love I really got nothing |
[00:57.830] |
Without a love I'd hang up my shoes |
[01:03.370] |
It'd be a world of suffering |
[01:08.370] |
If this one I was ever to lose |
[01:10.320] |
So I'm hanging on with all of my power |
[01:14.960] |
I'm hanging on as tight as a noose |
[01:20.270] |
Around the midnight hour |
[01:24.130] |
She said remember that I'm easily bruised |
[01:34.330] |
I've heard everything that I wanted |
[01:38.400] |
Had so much I threw it away |
[01:42.690] |
She could see that what I needed was never there anyway |
[01:51.160] |
Now everything around me is shifting |
[01:55.370] |
I'm running like a child through a maze |
[02:00.150] |
But I'm never lost completely 'cause an angel keeps me safe |
[02:06.370] |
|
[02:07.370] |
Lord, without a love I'm dead in the water |
[02:11.720] |
Without a love my aim is untrue |
[02:16.650] |
My blood gets hotter and hotter |
[02:19.780] |
At the thought of leaving this angel blue |
[02:23.980] |
I'm hanging on with all of my power |
[02:27.990] |
It's looking like our bodies might fuse |
[02:33.680] |
And when our cries got louder |
[02:36.450] |
She said 'Remember that I'm easily bruised.' |
[02:41.880] |
When I can't let go |
[02:47.820] |
And if I love too hard I'll hurt my baby so |
[02:54.760] |
Now everything makes sense at the moment |
[02:59.250] |
And the moment's independent of time |
[03:03.530] |
But who decides where truth resides |
[03:08.660] |
Your guess is as good as mine |
[03:11.370] |
So how 'bout a sip of the good stuff |
[03:15.580] |
How 'bout 'nother round on me |
[03:19.810] |
If this moment lasts forever |
[03:22.710] |
Then the truth we might just see |
[03:27.630] |
But without a love I don't have an inkling |
[03:31.770] |
I'd be howling every night at the moon |
[03:36.470] |
And if the stars stop twinkling |
[03:39.960] |
The end will sure be coming soon |
[03:43.720] |
So I'm hanging on with all of my power |
[03:47.630] |
In the garden where we're all free to choose |
[03:53.040] |
Any fruit or flower |
[03:55.640] |
She said remember that I'm easily bruised |
[04:00.490] |
Remember that I'm easily bruised |
[04:04.410] |
Remember that I'm easily bruised |
