| You smile to sweeten what you’re saying,
|
| But you wound with your words so fine,
|
| We all get the lives that we deserve what?,
|
| You’re cruel to my kind,
|
| Do you think that I’ve got no feelings,
|
| left to hurt inside,
|
| You aim is high and you don’t miss much,
|
| but my eyes are open wide
|
| If I’m gonna have to push the boat out,
|
| to meet that tidal wave,
|
| I’m gonna need more than a moment,
|
| to find a face that’s brave,
|
| and if I’m looking in the desert,
|
| to find the blazing flowers,
|
| I’m gonna need more than a minute,
|
| more like twenty four hours,
|
| Run that by me one more time,
|
| I gotta have a chance to recover,
|
| run that by me one more time,
|
| I gotta have a chance,
|
| run that by me one more time,
|
| before you blow my mind and my cover,
|
| run that by me one more time,
|
| cos I’m strong enough,
|
| So you saw this coming did you,
|
| You give pride while I take the fall,
|
| You never thought to warn me did you,
|
| Just sit back and watch it all,
|
| You straight jacket my dreams,
|
| and chainsaw my intentions,
|
| I hate to shatter your illusions,
|
| but I’m strong enough to carry on,
|
| If I’m gonna have to push the boat out,
|
| to meet that tidal wave,
|
| I’m gonna need more than a moment,
|
| to find a face that’s brave,
|
| and if I’m looking in the desert,
|
| to find the blazing flowers,
|
| I’m gonna need more than a minute,
|
| more like twenty four hours,
|
| Run that by me one more time,
|
| I gotta have a chance to recover,
|
| run that by me one more time,
|
| I gotta have a chance,
|
| run that by me one more time,
|
| before you blow my mind and my cover,
|
| run that by me one more time,
|
| cos I’m strong enough,
|
| I get crushed while you never mind,
|
| I get crushed while you never mind,
|
| and this is all the will I have,
|
| excuse me whilst I dig it up dig it up,
|
| I get crushed while you never mind,
|
| I get crushed while you never mind,
|
| and this is all the strength I have,
|
| excuse me whilst I dig it up, dig it up,
|
| Run that by me one more time,
|
| I gotta have a chance to recover,
|
| run that by me one more time,
|
| I gotta have a chance,
|
| run that by me one more time,
|
| before you blow my mind and my cover,
|
| run that by me one more time,
|
| cos I’m strong enough,
|
| Run that by me one more time,
|
| you don’t feel love,
|
| run that by me one more time,
|
| you don’t feel why.
|
| Run that by me one more time,
|
| you don’t feel love,
|
| run that by me one more time,
|
| you don’t feel why. |
