| If you bring the sun and the moon
|
| And the stars
|
| Then babe, I’m gonna take em.
|
| You bring the devil
|
| And I’ll shake him
|
| Go on, lay it on me.
|
| If you bring the clouds and the rain
|
| And the whole world in flames
|
| And you’re bleeding
|
| And someone comes looking for trouble
|
| I will cover you.
|
| I’ll make headlines when I follow through
|
| Go on and lay it on me.
|
| Quit hiding your face
|
| It’s the last thing that anyone needs.
|
| And when I get to crying instead
|
| Over something you said
|
| I’ll stand by the blues
|
| I’m gonna use 'em
|
| I’ll make a note not to abuse 'em
|
| Go on and do that for me.
|
| I’ve been moving a new way entirely
|
| Listen to me
|
| I’ve been trying
|
| I’ve been trying
|
| I’ve been trying
|
| To live my life over here
|
| And choose love over fear
|
| 'Cause it’s useless not to taste it And there’s no reason not to believe
|
| I give my days to the dealer
|
| I’ll be a witness to disease
|
| And have the courage of a sailor
|
| If there’s an answer I don’t see it.
|
| If there’s a weakness I don’t see it I live my dreams over here
|
| And choose love over fear
|
| I give my days to the dealer. |
