LULLABIES, GOOD-BYE

AND SHE CRIES

SO MUCH FOR THE LULLABIES, GOOD BYE

HER LOVE KEEPS PASSING ME, BY
AND NO MATTER HOW MUCH I SIT AND TRY
I TRY TO FIND THE REASONS WHY
SHE ALWAYS COMES RIGHT BACK TO ME


WITH A LITTLE PEACE OF MIND
AND A BIGGER PIECE OF MINE
SAYING OH BABY AND YOU KNOW ITS A BEEN A WHILE
AND ITS A LITTLE PASS TIME

O YEA WITH HER SMILE AND HER GRIN,
I FALL, ONCE AGAIN, WITH HER SMELL AND HER TOUCH
MY WHOLE WIDE WORLD BEGINS TO SPIN
IN A RUSH

AND JUST BEFORE, I KNOW I'M IN CONTROL OF THIS
SHE GRABS A HOLD OF A LITTLE BIT MORE
AND BY THE TIME IT ALL ENDS I'LL BE IN HER HANDS
AND SHE'LL BE HOLDING ON TO ME, AS I'M PULLING DOWN HER PANTS

BUT, OH NO, SHE'LL BE COLDER THEN...
SO COLD, SO MUCH ICE YES, ALL OVER, SO UNREAL YEA...
I CAN'T FEEL HER, IS THIS LIFE? NO
SHE DON'T KNOW, JUST HOW COLD, OH, JUST HOW COLD SHE FEELS TO ME...

AND O BUT I, SWEAR...

INSIDE MY SOUL, UNDER MY SKIN
I BURN ALIVE, MY LOVE, MY LIMBS
WON'T CATCH A FIRE, CAN'T FEEL THE WIND.....
AND I JUST DON'T KNOW WHO OR WHERE I AM 
OH.... AND THE LIGHTS ARE OFF AGAIN

WELL I KNOW NOW
YES I THINK I KNOW WHATS HAPPENING
BUT STILL I.. THINK I NEED YOU..YES AND I...
THINK I.... REALLY NEED YOU... ONCE AGAIN... TONIGHT...MY DEAR FRIEND

BUT OH NO OH NO I. (ONCE AGAIN YEA) THINK I KNOW....
SAID I KNOW LORD... O THAT SHE'LL NEVER BE ANY GOOD FOR ME....
STILL I, NO, THIS AIN'T EASY... SHES UNTRUE YEA
AND LORD I THINK THE DEVILS AFTER ME....
AND I THINK HE'S KNOWS SHE NEEDS ME
I CAN'T LEAVE HER,NO
OR HIM ON HER WINGS

BUT

SHE JUST CAN NOT EXPRESS WHAT IT IS
SHE JUST CAN'T EXPLAIN WHAT ITS LIKE TO BE....

RIGHT HERE NEXT TO ME

AND OH, SHE CRIES

SO MUCH FOR THE LULLABIES, GOOD BYE
