“I don’t want to be tied to anyone’s strings
I’m carefully trying to steer clear of those things
But when I’m asleep, I want somebody
Who will put their arms around me and kiss me tenderly”
–Somebody

But how many times does it take
‘Til I find that I’m lost when I’m alone
And that’s not where I belong”

And show me what it means to try this thing called love
Guide me through this pitch dark maze
And promise me we’ll find a way out”

“The whole slew blossomed beautifully, and I was beside myself
So I gave in to your love as you rapturously commanded
And this is like I have always dreamed:
Cobblestone and dusty feet
That’s the way it should always be
Head over heels and deftly
Wonderful and healthy”
–Live To Tell The Tale

I’ve been waiting for you to come rescue me.
I need you to hold all of the sadness that I can not
Living inside of me”

Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy sign
If there’s no one beside you when your soul embarks
Then I’ll follow you into the dark”

I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
To the dark and the endless skies, my love”

When you barely held my hand
I was overcome with feelings I don’t understand
Not in a million years
I didn’t think that we’d be here”

On that night from the balcony
How could we ever make this leap?”

Pulling at the stars in the moonlight
Every time I feel you close
Anywhere we go”
