Sometimes I wake up
And I watch you sleep
And in the darkness
I wonder if I'm in too deep

Help-what if it's true
I say the wrong things
'Cause I'm just a jealous guy

These days I feel I'm fightin'
Everything in sight
I'm fighting for my freedom
For my life

Some bigshot with the money
Puts my back against the wall
The red brick's waiting

I looked over my shoulder
Straight into your eyes
As you stood in my shadow
In some loud disguise

You were lookin' straight through me
Like a piece of glass
Out of step with the fashion

Every time I think of you, I always catch my breath
And I'm still standing here, and you're miles away
And I'm wonderin' why you left
And there's a storm that's raging through my frozen heart tonight

I hear your name in certain circles, and it always makes me smile
I spend my time thinkin' about you, and it's almost driving me wild
And there's a heart that's breaking down this long distance line tonight

You've been livin' with your broken heart
I've been trying hard to play the part
But some pretender with an easy smile
Can tell you it's alright

I ain't got nothin' if you leave me now
Just a hypocrite with broken vows
If I could change the way of circumstance

All I ever wanted was to get away
And spend some time alone, yeah
To a big house in the country
To a private yacht with wall street on the phone
And a million dollar paradise
Maybe I could sing a better song

I've found something different now

From your mothers' breast to the Vatican steps
It ain't such a long way down no
Absolution comes with the confession
But the priest still hangs around
And I don't want to lose myself
In some uniform
No I'm not gonna be reformed
Me oh my oh

Everytime I think of you
I always catch my breath
And I'm still standing here
And you're miles away
And I'm wonderin' why you left
And there's a storm that's raging
Through my frozen heart tonight

There's diamonds in the avenue
As the dayshift turns to night
In the Empire diner dreaming
Hard rain, fluorescent lights
As the waitress fills my coffee cup
And the working girls go by
Drenched Irish Cops are dreaming sex
And peep show alibis

I can't take you to the movies
And I can't tell the real thing
From a fake
But I'm curled up tight
In your Chevrolet
And baby you got wow
You've got what it takes
You've got no brakes

Well he pulls her from the crowd
To the doorway where they kiss
She whispers with her eyes
Will you have me
And he winks a roguish smile
And he lights a cigarette
Thinking, what the hell took you so long
To find me

You left me here alone
I guess I'll never see the light
You turned another's thumb
And he makes your wrongs
Seem right
Out on some different wavelength
Somehow he brings you more
But sweetheart tonight

When you tell me that you're leaving
And that you've got to be alone
Sometimes you seem to me like you're far away
In some different danger zone
I couldn't stop you if I wanted
You found somebody else for sure
What you don't know is I've found some love
Like some revolving door

Jenny's sitting in the car
In the middle of some abandoned Shoney's parking lot
Ripping off the filters off her cigarettes
Crying, he loves me, loves me not

She checks her makeup in the rearview mirror and turns the radio on
It hasn't hit her yet
But all she's looking at is another lonely night coming on

Babe I had a dream
Woke up in a sweat
Darkness all around me
I was caught in its net
Tried to reach for you
But you weren't there
It only was a dream
But it put danger in the air

Sometimes I wonder
How I'd ever make it through
Through this world
Without having you
I just wouldn't have a clue
'Cause sometimes it seems
Like this world's closing in on me
And there's no way of breaking free

(J. Waite)

Give me one thing I can believe
Give me one thing I can touch
Taste
Want
Take again
And again
