|
Watch your makeup, |
|
there is just a smudge beneath the eye. |
|
You look great in that dress, |
|
it hits every curve just right. |
|
We're got dinner at eight, and then drinks by nine. |
|
I love you so, it's our anniversary tonight. |
|
Suddenly everything shakes as if it's starting to break. |
|
And now I'm on my knees, |
|
my wife screams, "What's Wrong!?" |
|
As the stereo plays our song, Only In Dreams. |
|
Just last Friday is when my heart failed again. |
|
I was thinking that I should find a friend. |
|
I bought her several drinks, |
|
and slipped the ring into my hand. |
|
We drove to her place |
|
and let the good times roll again. |
|
Suddenly everything shakes as my protection breaks. |
|
And now I'm on my knees, |
|
and I scream, "This was wrong!" |
|
As I live, the stereo plays the song, The Finishing. |
|
Is this it? Is this how I have spent my life? |
|
Lying there with a broken heart on bedroom floors. |
|
And finally, finally, I realize, |
|
I realize that I'm only a man. |
|
One thing I have to know, where did the miracles go? |
|
And if a simple man believes, |
|
will it start again with me? |
|
If I were the maker I would fashion out a blade. |
|
To cut out every inch of dead heart I've made. |
