I live in dreams, I live in sorrow |
|
Can't see the light that I should follow |
|
I look deranged, they call me strange |
|
Whatever that is, well, I don't mind |
|
In another time, another place |
|
Yeah I was such a different kind |
|
And then she said "Why don't you call her?" |
|
She wrote a name, she wrote a number |
|
I wanted to fell whatever they feel |
|
I wanted to see the lightning strikes |
|
Under the rain, up on the hill |
|
Knocked on her door, looked in her eyes |
|
She said |
|
"I see you baby but I don't understand |
|
Who wrote that number on the back of your hand |
|
I wanna help you but I can't play along |
|
'Cause all I wanna do to you is wrong, is wrong" |
|
We stole a car and drove into the night |
|
Her skin reflecting all those big neon lights |
|
She kissed me gently and my body went numb |
|
I woke up on the shore with a mouth full of sand |
|
Her name, her face, I just can't remember |
|
How many times have you heard "it's over" |
|
And then you go and find another |
|
Another who pleads, another who gives |
|
Until it drives you out of your mind |
|
You're tired to be the one that breaks |
|
The one that hurts, that different kind |
|
She said |
|
"I see you baby but I don't understand |
|
Who wrote that number on the back of your hand |
|
I wanna help you but I can't play along |
|
'Cause all I wanna do to you is wrong, is wrong" |
|
We stole a car and drove into the night |
|
Her skin reflecting all those big neon lights |
|
She kissed me gently and my body went numb |
|
I woke up on the shore with a mouth full of sand |
|
The tide was rising and kept pulling me in |
|
Now will I ever get to see her again? |
|
Her name, her face, I just can't remember |
