I've been waiting all night long
I've been waiting to sing your song
To night, if you help me
Just help me find your k ey
I run my hands d own your neck
I'll cross it back to an other fret
I know you're fr agile
You'r e bound to self-des truct
And I can see right th rough your skin
Your bones are hollow, they're p aper-thin
To night, you're weightless
I k now the way you feel
So try, try lifting all your weight
For a man, a man gone w rong
And try, try wasting all your days
On a man, a man like me
And my love is a lot like yours
It's been crippled by the wars
We wage, we're h opeless
We're on the losing side
You never speak when we're making love
You never mean it w hen you come
To me, with your arms stretched
De fenseless and alone
So try, try lifting all your weight
For a man, a man gone w rong
And try, try wasting all your days
On a man, a man like me
Instrumental :
I taste you on my fingers
And I s mell you on my lips
I don't know where you're going
But you're going to slip
Hey honey better save yourself
You're never gonna make it
Hey honey, honey better save yourself
You're never gonna make it
So try, try lifting all your weight
For a man, a man gone w rong
And try, try wasting all your days
On a man, a man like me.
