All of these lines across my face Tell you the story of who I am So many stories of where I've been And how I got to where I am But these stories don't mean anything When you've got no one to tell them to It's true...I was made for you I climbed across the mountain tops Swam all across the ocean blue I crossed all the lines and I broke all the rules But baby I broke them all for you Because even when I was flat broke You made me feel like a million bucks You do I was made for you You see the smile that's on my mouth It's hiding the words that don't come out And all of my friends who think that I'm blessed They don't know my head is a mess No, they don't know who I really am And they don't know what I've been through like you do And I was made for you... All of these lines across my face Tell you the story of who I am So many stories of where I've been And how I got to where I am But these stories don't mean anything When you've got no one to tell them to It's true...I was made for you
When you're near me I have no fear When I'm untrue you see right through me You know me as deep as the sea goes Calm my head whenever the storm blows
When the stars, and the moon And the sky, fall through
I'd throw them all away when I'm hollow Deep as the sea goes, all I know is I would throw it all away...away
In my restless hour I'm holding The words you say that lay my soul to sleep I dream of buildings that burn The sky turns black I toss and turn
When the stars, and the moon And the sky, fall through
I'd throw them all away when I'm hollow Deep as the sea goes, all I know is I would throw it all away...away
This love branches out like an oak tree Reach for the sky and roots to the sea So when you're shaken down and broken Find some peace of mind in knowing
I'd throw them all away when I'm hollow Deep as the sea goes, all I know is I would throw it all away...away
Gone It's hard for me to see when I'm wrong It's hard for me to weep when I'm strong But I could never sleep when you're gone Oh but still If you were gonna crucify me I wouldn't want nobody to see 'Cause you could kick me hard when I'm down Down, down, down
I don't want wanna be Nobody's fool I've played that part so many times before How long to be A shadow on the wall I will make no sound at all And when the sun goes down The shadow on the wall It cannot be seen at all At all
Over it Hey it's not that you would mess with my head I believe that you believe what you said You think you know me best and you care But that's not fair! 'Cause I don't really want to be safe It must have been the way I was raised Sleep with one eye open I say Hey hey hey
I don't wanna be Nobody's fool I've played that part so many times before How long to be A shadow on the wall I will make no sound at all And when the sun goes down The shadow on the wall It cannot be seen at all At all
Oh How long to be A shadow on the wall I would make no sound at all At all
It's hard to let the miles pass me by Yellow lines that blend together in my eyes And when the seasons change again then I will too I just want to be closer to you
I'm staring out at endless rows of green There are miles of hay like I have never seen Just when you think you've had enough And your dreams come true I just want to be closer to you
My mind wanders through all that I've been hiding from I tried not to let you down Now I wonder if I've been doin' something wrong Help me get my feet back on the ground
Tomorrow I'll be lying under you With a heart of gold and arms to fall into I know that there might come a day Where my life is through But I just want to be closer to you
My mind wanders through all that I've been hiding from I tried not to let you down Now I wonder if I've been doin' something wrong Help me get my feet back on the ground
Someday we might learn to tell the truth We might even find the fountains of our youth We all needed something real we all need proof I just want to be closer to you I only want to be closer to you
