| I was lost till you were found
|
| But I never knew how far down
|
| I was falling
|
| Before I reached the bottom
|
| I was cold and you were fire
|
| And I never knew how the pyre
|
| Could be burning
|
| On the edge of the ice field
|
| And now the chilly California wind
|
| Is blowing down our bodies again
|
| And we’re sinking deeper and deeper
|
| In the chilly California sand
|
| Oh I know you belong inside my aching heart
|
| And can’t you see my faded Levis bursting apart
|
| And don’t you hear me crying
|
| 'Oh Babe, don’t go?'
|
| And don’t you hear me screaming
|
| 'How was I to know?'
|
| I’m in the middle of nowhere
|
| Near the end of the line
|
| But there’s a border to somewhere waiting
|
| And there’s a tankful of time
|
| Oh give me just another moment
|
| To see the light of the day
|
| And take me to another land
|
| Where I don’t have to stay
|
| And I’m gonna need somebody
|
| To make me feel like you do
|
| And I will receive somebody
|
| With open arms, open eyes
|
| Open up the sky and let the planet
|
| That I love shine through
|
| For crying out loud
|
| You know I love you
|
| For crying out loud
|
| You know I love you
|
| For crying out loud
|
| You know I love you
|
| I was damned and you were saved
|
| And I never knew how enslaved
|
| I was kneeling
|
| In the chains of my master
|
| I could laugh but you could cry
|
| And I never knew just how high
|
| I was flying
|
| Ah with you right above me
|
| And now the chilly California wind
|
| Is blowing down our bodies again
|
| And we’re sinking deeper and deeper
|
| In the chilly California sand
|
| Oh I know you belong inside my aching heart
|
| And can’t you see my faded Levis bursting apart
|
| And don’t you here me crying
|
| 'Oh Babe, don’t go?'
|
| And don’t you hear me screaming
|
| 'How was I to know?'
|
| I’m in the middle of nowhere
|
| Near the end of the line
|
| But there’s a border to somewhere waiting
|
| And there’s a tankful of time
|
| Oh give me just another moment
|
| To see the light of the day
|
| And take me to another land
|

|
| And I’m gonna need somebody

|
| With open arms, open eyes
|
| Open up the sky and let the planet
|
| That I love shine through
|
| For crying out loud
|
| You know I love you
|
| For crying out loud
|
| You know I love you
|
| For crying out loud
|
| You know I love you
|
| For crying out loud
|
| You know I love you
|
| For taking in the rain when I’m feeling so dry
|
| For giving me the answers when I’m asking you why
|
| My oh my, for that I thank you
|
| For taking in the sun when I’m feeling so cold
|
| For giving me a child when my body is old
|
| Don’t you know for that I need you
|
| For coming to my room when you know I’m alone
|
| For finding me a highway and for driving me home
|
| And you’ve gotta know
|
| For that I serve you
|
| For pulling me away when I’m starting to fall
|
| For revving me up when I’m starting to stall
|
| And all in all for that I want you
|
| For taking and for giving and for playing the game
|
| For praying for my future in the days that remain
|
| Oh Lord for that I hold you
|
| Ah but most of all
|
| For crying out loud
|
| For that I love you
|
| Ah but most of all
|
| For crying out loud
|
| For that I love you
|
| Ah but most of all
|
| For crying out loud
|
| For that I love you
|
| When you’re crying out loud
|
| You know I love you |
