There was a time
When I was so broken hearted
Love wasn't much of a friend of mine
The tables have turned, yeah
'Cause me and those ways have parted
That kind of love was the killin' kind
All I want is someone I can't resist
I know all I need to know by the way
that I got kissed
I was cryin' when I met you
Now I'm tryin' to forget you
Love is sweet misery
I was cryin' just to get you
Now i'm dyin' 'cause I let you
Do what you do-down on me
New there's not even breathin' room
Between pleasure and pain
Yeah you cry when we're makin' love
Must be one and the same
It's down on me
Yeah I got to tell you one thing
It's been onmy mind
Girl I gotta say
We're partners in crime
You got that certain something
What you give to me
Takes my breath away
Now the word on the street
Is the devil's in your kiss
If our love goes up in flames
It's a fire I can't resist
I was cryin' when I met you
Now I'm tryin' to forget you
Your love is sweet misery
I was cryin' just to get you
Now I'm dyin' 'cause I let you
Do what you do to me
'Cause what you got inside
Ain't where your love should stay
Yeah, our love, sweet love, ain't love
'Til you give your heart away
I was cryin' when I met you
Now I'm tryin' to forget you
Your love is sweet misery
I was cryin' just to get you
Now I'm dyin' just to let you
Do what you do what you do down to me,
baby, baby, baby
I was cryin' when I met you
Now I'm tryin' to forget you
Your love is sweet misery
I was cryin' when I met you
Now I'm dyin' 'cause I let you
Do what you do down to, down to,
down to, down to
I was cryin' when I met you
Now I'm tryin' to forget you
Your love is sweet
I was cryin' when I met you
There's something wrong with the world today,
I don't know what it is
Something's wrong with our eyes
-
We're seeing things in a different way,
And God knows it ain't his
It sure ain't no surprise
-
(yeah!)
We're livin' on the edge
We're livin' on the edge
We're livin' on the edge
We're livin' on the edge
-
There's something wrong with the world today,
The light bulb's gettin' dim
There's meltdown in the sky
-
If you can judge a wise man
By the color of his skin,
Then mister you're a better man than I
Chorus:
We're livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself from fallin'
We're livin' on the edge
You can't help yourself at all
We're livin' on the edge
You can't stop yourself from fallin'
We're livin' on the edge
(everybody, everybody)
Tell me what you think about your situation,
Complication, aggravation is getting to you
(yeah!)
If Chicken Little tells you that the sky is fallin',
Even if it wasn't would you still come crawlin' back again?
I bet you would, my friend
Again and again and again and again and again
(guitar solo)
Tell me what you think about your situation,
Complication, aggravation is getting to you
(yeah!)
If Chicken Little tells you that the sky is fallin',
Even if it wasn't would you still come crawlin' back again?
I bet you would, my friend
Again and again and again and again and again
-
Something right with the world today,
And everybody knows it's wrong
If you tell 'em no, we could let it go,
But I would rather be hangin' on
I kept the right ones out and let the wrong ones in
Had an angel of mercy to see me through all my sins
There were times in my life when I was goin' insane
Tryin' to walk through the pain
When I lost my grip and I hit the floor
Yeah, I thought I could leave but couldn't get out the
door
I was so sick and tired of livin' a lie
I was wishin' that I would die
Chorus:
It's amazing, with the blink of an eye you finally see the
light
It's amazing when the moment arrives that you know you'll
be alright
It's amazing and I'm sayin' a prayer for the desperate
hearts tonight
That one last shot's a permanent vacation
And how high can you fly with broken wings?
Life's a journey not a destination
And I just can't tell just what tomorrow brings
You have to learn to crawl before you learn to walk
But I just couldn't listen to all that righteous talk
I was out on the street, just tryin' to survive
Scratchin' to stay alive
Chorus:
It's amazing, with the blink of an eye you finally see the
light
It's amazing when the moment arrives that you know you'll
be alright
It's amazing and I'm sayin' a prayer for the desperate
hearts tonight
Desperate hearts, desperate hearts
Did you wanna see without and give it out now (or
whatever...)
Ow, oh yeah yeah, oh yeah yeah, ya ka kow, ya ka ka ka kow
