when we were young

Description

Steady woman won't you come on down? I need you right here on the ground I've walked the outskirts of this town Been terrorized by what I've found I saw a standing virgin bride Where holy Dionysus died She tore the heart out from his side And laid it there, and there she cried She said, "Hello, I'm a monster too." "What poisons me is what poisons you." Into these animals we grew (But) When we were young our eyes were blue I take my medicine on my knee Twice a day but lately three Keeps the devil from my door And it makes me rich and it makes me poor I'm a beggar in the morning, I'm a king at night, My belt is loose, But my trigger is tight May come without warning, At the speed of the light Make it shine so pretty Make it shine so bright (Music Break) I think I've come a long, long way To stand before you here today They're yours alone, the songs I play, To take with you or throw away Whoa-o-o-o, Whoa-o-o-o-o-o-o, Whoa-o-o-o-o, Whoa-o-o-o, Whoa-o-o-o (Away forever or fade away) Oh, I want an angel to wipe my tears, Know my dreams, my hopes, desires and fears We may capsize, but we won't drown Hold each other as the sun goes down I'm a beggar in the morning, I'm a king at night, My belt is loose, and My trigger is tight May come without warning At the speed of the light- Make it shine so pretty, Make it shine so bright.
