Steady now, steady now. Don't fear what you can't see. Ready now, ready now. I'll hold on to you, you hold on to me. . Ooh. . I found the heart of a lion.
I lit a fire with the love you left behind. And it burned wild and crept up the mountain side.. I followed your ashes into outer space. I can't look out the window.
You got me down on the floor. So what'd you bring me down here for?. You got me down on the floor. So what'd you bring me down here for?. . If I was a man I'd make my move.
I'm a girl with the best intentions. Something I should probably mention. I like to get just what I paid for. So I pay and I get and I pay and I want some more, more, more.
Un, deux, trois, quartre. . Oh la la. . You got me down on the floor. So what'd you bring me down here for?. You got me down on the floor. Well what'd you bring me down here for?.
I lit a fire with the love you left behind. And it burned wild and crept up the mountainside. I followed your ashes into outer space. I can't look out the window, I can't look at this place.
Friday night I started my first fist fight. Got me kicked out of the bar. When I went stumbling through. The parking lot, you know. . I could not find my car.
You got me down on the floor. So what'd you bring me down here for?. You got me down on the floor. So what'd you bring me down here for?. . If I was a man I'd make my move.
Im having trouble with my baby. Seems like hes always out of town. And the more I go looking for the man. The less he comes around. . I dont know why he treats me so.
Ive been reading up on magazines. Lately, Ive been trying not to lie. Now I know the difference. Between life and a movie screen. But that should come as no surprise.
Sleeping under concrete skies. Underneath a pair of dice. This city is a dirty jerk. But baby so is love. And we ain't kicking either one tonight. Is it too late, too late to turn around.
Here before the sunrise. You came a-knocking at my door. How long has it been now?. You got the hint I wanted more. . You woke me up at 2 am. With your stomping on my floor.
I could have been an angel looking over yall. I could have been a high-wire dancer. With no one to catch me if I fall. I could have been a heavenly host.
I was on my way to the grocery store. When I saw a man standing at my back door. He was tall and dark, Id never seen him before. He was saying something that I could not ignore.
Take me south of Buffalo. My feet are freezing cold. Take me south of Buffalo. My feet are freezing cold. New Orleans is calling me. Calling to my very soul.
Just another day, the sun dun slipped away. Between the crack in the horizon and the sky. Just a drop of red for from my warm bed. And with the flick of a switch, the day dun up and died.
You know how to make me weak in the knees. When you pour yourself all over me. But somebody broke you back in the day. Now you never ever love. Now you only wanna play.
Ive been in bed, Ive been away. Ive been the blamer and Ive been blamed. I cant read the answers if I cant see the page. Im driving blind, the landscape doesnt change.
I drove a long, long way without drinking. I listened to the Baptist Radio. There was a blue-gray sky as I passed the ghost town by. And headed down to where nobody knows me.
Summers on the rise. And I am flying. The good days have. Come around again. . Im up on top of a big burnt rock. With some people I call friends. Were half a mile to heaven.
