Lyrics

[00:24.94] That old dog has chained you up, alright
[00:29.25] Give you everything you need to live inside a twisted cage
[00:32.94] Sleep beside an empty rage
[00:37.32]
[00:37.87] I had a dream I was your hero
[00:41.07] Damn, I wish I was your lover
[00:44.44] I'd rock you 'til the daylight comes
[00:46.81] Made sure you are smiling and warm
[00:49.69] I am everything, tonight, I'll be your mother
[00:53.26] I'll do such things to ease your pain
[00:55.56] Free your mind, and you won't feel ashamed
[01:00.65]
[01:02.78] Open up on the inside
[01:04.09] Gonna fill you up, gonna make you cry
[01:08.71] This monkey can't stand to see you black and blue
[01:13.16] I give you something sweet each time you come inside my jungle book
[01:18.54] Or is it just too good?
[01:21.92] Don't say you'll stay, 'cause then you go away
[01:24.92] Damn, I wish I was your lover
[01:28.48] I'd rock you 'til the daylight comes
[01:30.79] Made sure you are smiling and warm
[01:33.67] I am everything, tonight, I'll be your mother
[01:37.11] I'll do such things to ease your pain
[01:39.54] Free your mind, and you won't feel ashamed
[01:42.29] Shucks, for me there is no other
[01:46.04] You're the only shoe that fits
[01:48.17] I can't imagine I'll grow out of it
[01:51.17] Damn, I wish I was your lover
[01:59.44]
[02:00.32] If I was your girl, believe me
[02:03.64] I'd turn on the Rolling Stones
[02:05.76] We could groove along and feel much better
[02:09.96] Come, let me in, mm
[02:14.10] I could do it forever and ever and ever and ever
[02:17.90] Give me an hour to kiss you
[02:21.11] Walk through Heaven's door I'm sure
[02:24.24] We don't need no doctor to feel much better
[02:26.61] Let me in, oh
[02:30.31] Forever and ever and ever and ever and ever
[02:45.99]
[03:23.91] I sat on a mountainside with peace of mind
[03:27.97] And I lay by the ocean making love to her with visions clear
[03:31.79] Walked for days with no one near
[03:37.54] And I return as chained and bound to you
[03:40.04] Damn, I wish I was your lover
[03:43.29] I'd rock you 'til the daylight comes
[03:45.60] Made sure you are smiling and warm
[03:48.29] I am everything, tonight, I'll be your mother
[03:50.98] I'll do such things to ease your pain
[03:54.29] Free your mind, and you won't feel ashamed
[03:57.66] Shucks, for me there is no other
[04:00.79] You're the only shoe that fits
[04:03.35] I can't imagine I'll grow out of it
[04:05.60]
[04:15.84] Damn, I wish I was your lover
[04:18.15] I wanna open up, I'm gonna come inside
[04:20.71] I wanna fill you up, I wanna make you cry
[04:23.27] Damn, I wish I was your lover
[04:26.40] Gettin' on a subway, and I'm comin' uptown
[04:32.21] Damn, I wish I was your lover
[04:35.21] Standing on the street corner, waiting for my love to change
[04:39.15] Damn, I wish I was your lover
