| Am I supposed to close my eyes as you walk away from me?
|
| Am I supposed to blind myself so I’ll never have to see
|
| You walking side by side with a different kind of man
|
| Who’ll redefine your body in ways I know I…
|
| What if I don’t wanna go now?
|
| Will you come put these eyes out?
|
| So don’t go and blame your mother for what’s your father’s fault
|
| Or all of your daughters will turn out just like you
|
| Bent on destruction and burning through your beauty
|
| And looking beyond your years by the time you’re only…
|
| What if I don’t wanna go now?
|
| Will you come put these eyes out?
|
| Oh, c’est la vie, please don’t go and abandon me
|
| When the bridge burns down and the bad blood tastes like wine on the wind
|
| (And they say) Beware of the man in shades, beware
|
| Beware of the man in shades, beware
|
| I stutter step my way across desert lakes
|
| To try to sweat the ghost of the past
|
| So I can lay my anchor at last at your feet
|
| (As they say) Beware of the man in shades, beware
|
| Beware of the man in shades, beware
|
| I am the man in shades, yes I am
|
| I am the man in shades, yes I am
|
| I am the man in shades, yes I am
|
| (And this ship will sail, and this heart won’t die)
|
| I am the man in shades, yes I am
|
| (And this ship will sail, and this heart won’t die)
|
| I am the man in shades, yes I am
|
| (And this ship will sail, and this heart won’t die)
|
| I am the man in shades, yes I am
|
| (And this ship will sail, and this heart won’t die)
|
| I am the man in shades, yes I am
|
| (And this ship will sail, and this heart won’t die)
|
| Oh, c’est la vie, please don’t go and abandon me
|
| When the bridge burns down and the bad blood tastes like wine on the wind
|
| I am the man in shades, yes I am
|
| (And this ship will sail, and this heart won’t die)
|
| I am the man in shades, yes I am
|
| (And this ship will sail, and this heart won’t die)
|
| I am the man in shades, yes I am
|
| (And this ship will sail, and this heart won’t die) |
