Morning grows near, oh I wish you were here, |
| [00:33.67] |
as I toss and I turn in my bed. |
| [00:40.71] |
I long for your touch and I miss you so much |
| [00:47.70] |
and the silence has torn me to shreds. |
| [00:55.33] |
But even in longing, I still feel the pronging |
| [01:02.77] |
of misery's poisonous claws, |
| [01:09.67] |
when in your perfection I catch my reflection |
| [01:16.04] |
and in it my numerous flaws. |
| [01:23.80] |
Babe, don't be afraid, |
| [01:28.86] |
you know I love you with all of my heart. |
| [01:37.01] |
Please listen to me, |
| [01:41.83] |
don't let those wicked thoughts tear us apart. |
| [02:15.59] |
You're brave and you're strong, I am timid and wrong, |
| [02:22.28] |
you're a diamond and I am but coal. |
| [02:28.80] |
You're the moon and the stars, I am ashes and tar, |
| [02:35.23] |
you're a nightingale I am a mole. |
| [02:42.54] |
Babe, don't think that way, |
| [02:47.34] |
these are the demons that bite at your soul. |
| [02:55.56] |
Please, come back to me, |
| [03:00.14] |
you're losing your mind and you're out of control. |
| [03:35.10] |
Well, this is my curse and it keeps getting worse |
| [03:42.62] |
as I can't hold these bad thoughts at bay. |
| [03:49.72] |
So I'll whine and I'll moan and I'll cry on the phone |
| [03:56.00] |
'till I finally drive you away. |
| [04:03.70] |
And then I will ride with my deflated pride |
| [04:10.18] |
and the warmth of the blood in my shoe, |
| [04:16.67] |
'till an ugly old scar and a broken guitar |
| [04:22.76] |
will be all that reminds me of you. |
| [04:31.89] |
