Song Lyrics

You have me burnin' up
With your bad timing
One small moment
I'm lost in your love

I'm lost and innocent
Turn my head around
Your one liners
I can do without

[B-Section:]
Easy come, easy go
I can't back down baby
I should have let you know that

[Chorus:]
I would do anything for you
Anything for you
If I only had you by my side
I would do anything for you
Anything for you
So wave goodbye
Anything for you

One day comes
And I dissappear
You'll get your independance
Free and clear

Ah, you got it in you
A chance to make it work
Your heart will keep on beating
And I'll still hurt

You can knock me out
I've been down for the ten-count before
Better give it up
Don't have to show me I've had enough

[1st B-Section:]
I've seen the way you've been
Stealin' with those eyes.
You're high-heeled trouble
You're dangerous
With a criminal mind

[Chorus:]
How can you do what you do
What you've done to me
Take the pain and the pleasure
Turn it around on me
How can you do what you do
Is what I don't believe

Break down the walls
Live and learn from a hurricane
You just can't come and go
Another hit on the hurt parade

[2nd B-Section:]
You think I love it when you're
Tearin' me apart
Don't you see, you're playin' games
With my heart

[Chorus:]
How can you do what you do
What you've done to me
Take the pain and the pleasure
Turn it around on me
How can you do what you do
Is what I don't believe

[Bridge:]
What went wrong
Who's to blame
Tell me now
You're never gonna change

[Lead Solo]

[1st B-Section:]
I've seen the way you've been
Stealin' with those eyes
You're high-heeled trouble
You're dangerous with a criminal mind

Way back in the early days
1946 She walked in with the look o'love
That girl had bedroom eyes
Fire engine lipstick lips
All heads turned ooh with a human desire
It set the world on fire.

My kinda woman
Someone's yeseteryear dreams
That's my kinda woman
I could tear down the silver screen

A fallen woman femme fatale
her body screamed heartbreak
Hotel...brains and beauty
Break down the walls, I fall
Down, to my knees,
When I see her picture in the
Movie magazines
All heads turned ooh for the lady in red
Bring up the house lights and say

My kinda woman
Bring back those yesteryear dreams
My kind woman help me
Tear down the silver screen

Picture perfect
X marks the spot
There's just no way
To tell you how hot
My kinda woman

If I could go back in time
To the right place eye to eye
Magic to burn ooh with a human desire
She set the world on fire

My kinda woman
Someone's yesteryear dreams
My kinda woman
I could tear down the silver screen
My kinda woman
Bring back those yesteryear dreams
And that's my kinda woman
Help me tear down the silver screen

Equal Opportunity knocked
Twice too late to stay on top of it all
All for one, one for all.
Push me, pull me, way too far
One way or another someone's gotta take
The fall, you better look at yourself

When you put your foot down baby
You stomped down on me
You made your last point baby
It's all I can take

[Chorus:]
Take a walk -
Take a long and lonely walk
You better think about it
Come back to a whole new start
Cause-I wash my hands
Of you and your plans to take over
Take a walk

A lover's crime and punishment
Is do this, do that and put your eyes
Back in your head
Let's play house instead
You complain about everything
You're not happy 'til the chain's
Wrapped 'round my leg
It's about time for a change

When you put your foot down baby
You stomped down on me
Too much is enough now, baby
It's all I can take, so!

[Chorus:]

I swear by love
You got it
All and much more
Than one could ever hope for
'Cause I would take a number
Just to wait in line, for a look
And to gimme the high sign

[B-Section:]
Red lights green lights
Go for the gold
Something inside, I want you now
I want it all, and more than you know

[Chorus:]
My mind is twisted, tied up in knots
My heart is achin' from a shot in the dark
I got a feeling what this is all about
I think it's time for the ...big love
I'm gettin' ready for the big love

Everytime I think about you
I get a lump in my throat
From the big beat in my heart
I am helpless, hungry for attention
I know... you could see me fall apart

[B-Section:]
[Chorus:]

[Bridge:]
Ready, willing and able, give me
The chance to show you-I want it all
More than you know

She grabs her magazines
She packs her things and she goes
She leaves the pictures hanging on the wall, she burns all
Her notes and she knows, she's been here too few years
To feel this old

He smokes his cigarette, he stays outside 'till it's gone
If anybody ever had a heart, he wouldn't be alone
He knows, she's been here too few years, to be gone

And we always say, it would be good to go away, someday
But if there's nothing there to make things change
If it's the same for you I'll just hang

The trouble understand, is she got reasons he don't
Funny how he couldn't see at all, 'til she grabbed up her coat
And she goes, she's been here too few years to take it all in stride
But still it's much too long, to let hurt go (you let her go)
And we always say, it would be good to go away, someday
But if there's nothing there to make things change
If it's the same for you I'll just hang
The same for you
I'll always hang
Well I always say, it would be good to go away
But if things don't work out like we think
And there's nothing there to ease this ache
But if there's nothing there to make things change
If it's the same for you, I'll just hang

What we learned here is love tastes bitter when it's gone
Past yourself forget the light, things look dirty when it's on
Funny how it comes to pass, that all the good slips away
And there's no one around you can remember being good to
You

[chorus 1]
Shame, shouldn't try you, couldn't step by you
And open up more
Shame, shame, shame

What we lost here is something better left alone
Second steps have been forgotten, will you tell me how
They go
Set yourself, situate, like a fool try again
There's no one around you can remember being good, for you
So

[chorus 2]
Shame, shouldn't try you, couldn't step by you
And open up more
Shame, shame, shame
Shame, shouldn't try you, couldn't step by you
And open up more
Shame, shame, shame

We never thought we'd get so troubled
We could never think that much
It should never get this bad

So let the wind blow ya, across a big floor
But there's no one around who can tell us what we're here
For
Funny in a certain light, how we all look the same
And there's no one in life you can remember ever stood
For you, so

I forget when words were only words
She knows the party makes me nervous
In this stage we can't get hurt
Don't try to understand me

We're too cool to be alone
But, not too crazy to get busted

I found out one life ain't enough
I need another soul to feed on
I'm the flame I can't get burnt
I'm wholly understated

I found silence in this space
An on and off again attraction
I need such amazing grace
Heaven sweep me away

[chorus]

Love don't change, don't come around here
Don't wear my heart on your sleeve
Like a high school letter
Don't strain, cuz nothing ever comes from it
And the people we've become, well
They've never been the people who we are

I strap on one horse and prayed for luck
I dug another hole to bleed
I know exactly how this works
I need a new feel dirty

I don't need you crowding up my space
I just want to get inside you
You can't blame the heart you save
Giving something awa

[chorus]

I dreamed that the world was crumbling down
We sat on my back porch and watched it
I dreamed that the buildings all fell down
We sat on my back porch and watched it
In my head I heard the sound
Like fifteen strangers dancing

But oh how I want you to know me
Oh how I want you to know me
Oh how I wish I was somebody else, baby
Oh how I wish you could own me

[chorus]

Kody sat down on the avenue
He tapped his feet, to the humming of the highway
He watched the light shine down on the broken glass and thought
I don't got no reasons, yet
There it is and there it was
It was clear to all of us
We kept this hat of broken dreams
And we pulled them out, when we needed them around

[Chorus:]
So please hand me the bottle, I think I'm lonely now
And please give me direction, I think the hurt sets in
And I don't feel nothing

There's a squeak hinge down on the back gate
It lets us know if he comes around
I don't sleep that good anyway
If you've never heard the silence, it's a God awful sound

[Chorus:]
So please hand me the bottle, I think I'm lonely now
And please give me direction, I think I just caved in
And I don't feel nothing

I don't feel nothing, no I don't feel nothing
There's nothing to feel good about here

Don't much get down to the avenue
I could drive, but it takes so much to get there
Don't get off on all the broken glass, the cadillac scene,
Well
I've seen a lot of good things die and I'm
In an over emotional way

[Chorus:]
So please hand me the bottle, I think I'm lonely now
And please give me direction, I think the hurt sets in
And I don't feel nothing

She don't, but she will
He says anything to keep her by him
She takes, what she gets, and she never did flinch
over, and over, well anyone
With any mind would think that's all she gets

[chorus]

If you want you can get to know me well
We get along so we shouldn't argue
And I don't know, said I don't know
All these feelings cloud up my reasoning
Cloud up my reasoning

I know, but I still
Believe in ignorance as my best defense
So go on, wreck me
Funny how I carry on, and not be taken over
Will not roll over on anyone,
cuz anyone would stand up on my side

[chorus]

You know it's funny how sometimes,
It don't work out like you want to
No you never get nothing at all
Then she tells you that it's nothing at all
Then she tells you that it's over, boy don't you hate it
When it's over
I guess something just got lost, and it deeply saddens me
So over, and over anyone, who's anyone

[chorus]
