Baptize her with bitter tears till she knows your pain is real.
Next time you see her on her knees, don't try to make a deal.
Don't stare her into silence, with frozen point of view.
'Cause she's got 44 stories: she wants to tell them all to you.

Welcome her to all your fears and trust that she will cope.
Give her one day of satisfaction for a thousand years of hope.
Don't turn to dry your eyes, and lose your chance to look.
'Cause she's got 44 stories: she wants to write them in a book.

Wait until your mem'ry clears, then welcome her to Rome.
The desert of your misspent years that led you to her home.
Don't hold her up to sunlight, she'll melt into the blue.
Don't make her shout through static if you want hear the truth,

'Cause she's got 44 stories;
She's got 44 stories;
She's got 44 stories: she wants to tell them all to you.

Baptize her with bitter tears till she knows your pain is real.

I think, I understand
The reason you won't stay with me
You think a ring upon your hand
Will solve your insecurity

So go ahead and play your games
If that's what you must do
Nothing here remains the same
But the way I feel for you

I can watch you walk away
And I know that I'll get by
And I know just what to say
But honey, I can't tell a lie

Figure out what you must do
Because you think you're so damn clever
You can marry anytime you want
But a lover is forever

I can watch you walk away
And I know that I'll get by
And I know just what to say
But honey, I can't tell a lie

Figure out what you must do
Because you think you're so damn clever
You can marry anytime you want
But a lover is forever
You can marry anytime you want
But a lover is forever

Someone was 'round here asking questions
About somebody who looks like you
I said I don't know where you are
Sounded like he was gonna be back someday
So I told her where you are

She's making it all come true this time
She's making it all come true this time
She's making it all come true this time

Got to find the brightness in the soul
Not look outside to find out where we are
Oh, you won't be satisfied, yeah
Until you make possessions of the stars

She's making it all come true this time
She's making it all come true this time
She's making it all come true this time

Someone was 'round here asking questions
About somebody who looks like you
I said I don't know where you are
She said she was gonna be back someday
So I told her where you are

She's making it all come true this time
She's making it all come true this time
She's making it all come true this time

She's making it all come true this time
She's making it all come true this time

She's making it all come true this time

Got to find the brightness in the soul
Not look outside to find out where we are
Oh, you won't be satisfied, yeah
Until you make possessions of the stars

She's making it all come true this time
She's making it all come true this time
She's making it all come true this time

She's making it all come true this time

She's making it all come true this time
She's making it all come true this time
She's making it all come true this time

Do you wanna be honest, or do you wanna win?
You could have it all if you could gracefully give in.
Like when a martyr go sees a martyr.
Lookin' in the mirror makes you cry harder,
'Bout your glitterin' ball and chain.
In love, in love with your beautiful pain.


Excuses and all theories peak themelves and die.
Even when they don't hold water, you try to keep them safe and dry.
An' trade your moan for a positive tone,
Reassured by ads about things you own,
And so we go through this again,
In love, in love with your beautiful pain.


If everything went runnin' smoothly,
You'd soon lose who you were.
Oh, the pain and hurt, for that's your real,
So go on, go back to her.


Instrumental Break.


You packed up all your troubles, you let me play the bars.
An' hiked out to the meadows and lay down on the fragrant moss.
Put down your own tree, then meticulously,
Built a cross right there and stared back at me.
An' climbed up on it again:
In love, in love with your beautiful
In love, in love with your beautiful
In love, in love with your beautiful pain.

Blue moon out my window, guess this means goodnight
And you come in and start right in not treating me right
Misery's a ball and all its company

I'll play the victim for you honey, but not for free
I run into that heartache just like a wall
And act like nothing happened to me, nothing at all
Lately I'm amazed at how blind we can be
Lately even dreaming feels like old reality

What would I give to be a diamond in your eyes again
What would I give to bring back those old times
What did I say to make your cold heart bleed this way
Maybe I'll just go away today

I don't care who's waiting at my front door
You know that life don't hold no glamour anymore
Oh, how can it all look so right and feel so wrong
I'll play the victim for you honey but not for long

What would I give to be a diamond in your eyes again
What would I give to bring back those old times
What did I say to make your past turn up this way
Maybe I'll just go away today

Maybe I'll just go away
Maybe I'll just go away
Maybe I'll just go away to stay
Maybe I'll just go away
Maybe I'll just go away
Maybe I'll just go away

In the middle of my life
When my fate was sealed and tied
The heavens rain down fire
The earth and moon conspire

To open up my eyes
Make me face my lies
I crawl through an abyss
I struggle and resist
Somehow I break free
Someone becomes me

And when I stand upright
I'm filled with a new light
I'm given one more chance
So I change partners
In this new dance

The moon stays on a course
No mortal will force
The courage to go deep
Is gathered while we sleep

I'm purified by fire
Renewed by my desire
Nothings left to chance
So I change partners

In this new dance
I change partners
In this new dance
I'll change partners

Lock all the doors an' turn out the lights.
Work this thing through till we get it right.
But if I seem angry an' cold,
Or I don't speak at all,
It's just that old fear,
'Cause baby, I'm closer than I appear.

An' here are the facts, as much as I know.
We've got to turn back if we can't let it go.
You know your heart an' your mind.
An' I'm just three steps behind,
But I feel those tears,
'Cause baby, I'm closer than I appear.
Yeah, baby, I'm closer than I appear.

'Cause somewhere inside, I'm reachin' out for you.
Somewhere inside, we both know the truth.
But I learned lots of rules 'bout what a man's made of,
An' I got to rethink what I know about love.


Hey, I'm willin' to change.
If I still seem the same, well it's just them old fears.
An', baby, I'm closer than I appear.

If I was born to stand here, an' give you nothing but love,
To fill up these years,
Then, baby, I'm closer than I appear.
Yeah, baby, I'm closer than I appear.

Well, come closer, an' I'll come closer.

Well, come closer, closer than I appear.

Lock all the doors an' turn out the lights.
Work this thing through till we get it right.
But if I seem angry an' cold,
Or I don't speak at all,
It's just that old fear,
'Cause baby, I'm closer than I appear.

An' here are the facts, as much as I know.
We've got to turn back if we can't let it go.
You know your heart an' your mind.
An' I'm just three steps behind,
But I feel those tears,
'Cause baby, I'm closer than I appear.
Yeah, baby, I'm closer than I appear.

'Cause somewhere inside, I'm reachin' out for you.
Somewhere inside, we both know the truth.

Well, come closer, an' I'll come closer.

Well, come closer, closer than I appear.

In every woman and man lies the seed of the fear
Of just how alone are all who live here
Denying the fear is the name of the game
To stare at the fear is going insane
Forgiving the fear is one up on Cane
Is to dance with the tiger
And laugh at the rain

Don't give me your life, I have one of my own
It was a brilliant idea inventing the home
Creatures of habit, American fools
Reaching for stars while we're standing on stools
Letting it go is jumping the train
Is to dance with the tiger
Letting it go though we won't be the same
Is to dance with the tiger
Letting it go is the name of the game
Is to dance with the tiger
And laugh at the rain

In every woman and man lies the seed of the fear
Of just how alone are all who live here
Denying the fear is the name of the game
To stare at the fear is going insane
Forgiving the fear is one up on Cane
Is to dance with the tiger
And laugh at the rain

Don't give me your life, I have one of my own
It was a brilliant idea inventing the home
Creatures of habit, American fools
Reaching for stars while we're standing on stools
Letting it go is jumping the train
Is to dance with the tiger
Letting it go though we won't be the same
Is to dance with the tiger
Letting it go is the name of the game
Is to dance with the tiger
And laugh at the rain

We are awakened, restored, and renewed
The bonds of desire have led me to you
The heat of the questions that linger and stir
Is the fire that enfolds us, a place to be cured
Salvation and rescue
And the one thing of which I am sure

[Chorus:]
Your hand on my heart
And its beating in time
To the sound of your voice
And the look in your eyes
The moment you touch me
All down inside
Is the fire of the newly alive

The passion of old is a children's quick game
Now it's the sound of the thunder
And feel of the flames
You leave me a message so deep in my skin
Where you stop is where I begin

You are the reason, the time and the face
I am dissolving in oceans of grace
I'd give up a lifetime to keep you from harm
Be your salvation and rescue
And burn bridges to lie in your arms

I don't have to carry this load alone
Someday I'll stop crying, and it won't be long
My eyes to the distance, baby
My hands on the wheel
And I'm gonna rise from the ashes
That's how I feel, I feel
I'm gonna rise from the ashes

I feel inspiration when all may be lost
I claim resurrection no matter the cost
My moment of waking, darlin'
Is so close at hand
And I'm gonna rise from the ashes
I know I can, I can
I'm gonna rise from the ashes

Just give me one more moment
Just give me one more night
I'll be alright
You know I will
I will

I hold onto faith inside my fear
I know someone hears
me when no one is near
My heart is my compass
My soul is my guide
And I'm gonna rise from the ashes
Be alive, so alive
I'm gonna rise from the ashes

If you want to keep a woman like me, you got to hold on
If you want to see how good it can be, baby, hold on
All my friends think that I'm a fool
I tell you something honey, they're not that cool
If you want to keep a woman like me, you better hold on

If you want to know how far we can go, you got to hold on
If you take it slow then I got something to show you
Baby, hold on
All those girls with their empty heads
Can't fill 'em up with the lies they've been fed
If you want to know how far I can go, you got to hold on

She'll give you reasons for her kind
You might believe it, but I'm not that blind

If you think you need a woman like me, you better hold on
If you want to find what I've got on my mind, baby, hold on
All this small talk that keeps us apart
Is only hiding how we feel in our hearts
If you want to keep a woman like me, baby, hold on

Baby can't wait baby gotta go
Gotta do a number on the late night show
Do a little song do a little dance
Wanna make the best of her big chance.

Don't really matter if she don't or if she do
Tryin' to make the best of the hometown blues.

Said she's the best in the whole wide world
Said it so good said its unreal
Might not last but it's no big deal.

Tryin' to make the best of the hometown blues.

Wanna be the queen of their little scene.

I'm on your new wave length
I know what you must think
I've never felt like this
I can't resist, Knowing love like this
I can't resist

In from the outside at last
I've lived alone in your past
I've known no love like this
I can't resist, Knowing love like this
I cant resist (I love the way you cast your spell)
I can't resist (No other ever looked so good)
I can't resist (The tender way you show your charm)
I can't resist

This heart no longer my own
Without no neutral zone
Within your sweet caress
I cant resist, Knowing love like this
I can't resist,knowing love like this
I can't resist

I'm on your new wave length
I know what you must think
I've never felt like this
I can't resist, Knowing love like this

Na, na, na, na, na, na, late at night
Na, na, na, na, na, na, late at night
I sit and count the tears

I have counted everyday since you've been away
It seems like a thousand years

And at na, na, na, na, na, na, late at night
Na, na, na, na, na, na, late at night
I sit and count the tears

And I have counted all your lies, all your alibis
Now, I'm a girl, believes just what she hears

And at na, na, na, na, na, na, late at night
Na, na, na, na, na, na, late at night
I sit and count the tears

He's gone and found somebody new
She may be happy now but soon
She'll be counting everyday that he's been away
And it will seem like a thousand years

And at na, na, na, na, na, na, late at night
Na, na, na, na, na, na, late at night
She'll sit and count the tears

She'll sit and count the tears
She'll sit and count the tears

Na, na, na, na, na, na, late at night
Na, na, na, na, na, na, late at night
Na, na, na, na, na, na, late at night

It's the right time you know I feel fine tonight (I don't why you don't want me)
It's the right place I've got my new face tonight (I don't why you don't want me)
I'm in the right mood I've got my new shoes tonight (I don't why you don't want me)
I've got a new dress I couldn't care less tonight (I don't why you don't want me)

Somebody told you I was so cold and mean (who was that talking)
Somebody wants you and don't want me in between (she better start walkin')
Somebody hurt you but baby she wasn't me

I'll show you how long that I can go on tonight (I don't why you don't want me)

You come round and say you want me now
You tell me don't leave and I want to believe you
Why can't you see just how much I need you

[Chorus]

It's the last chance for a romance tonight (I don't why you don't want me)
There'll be no next time if you won't be mine tonight (I don't why you don't want me)
I don't know why you don't want me?

It's the right time you know I feel fine tonight (I don't why you don't want me)
