(Verse 1)
Heard about their wandering eyes
And all the clothes they shed and hide
With all the pain you hold never gets outgrown
You want me to sleep by your side
To keep her from running your life
(Verse 2)
And I believed in yesterday
And all the words were simply played
And they still know I'm only as far as the telephone
But they want me to sleep by their side
To keep them from ruining their lives
Their lives...
(Chorus)
So baby tell me all your secrets and lies
I'll tell you mine
'Cuz lately I've been thinking we ain't got the time
Late in the nights
'Cuz its a long, long, long way down
Ain't it?..
(Verse 3)
And all along we used to chase
Dreams of dragons far away
Though all the flocks have flown
And i'm too scared to be outgrown
You want me to sleep by your side
To keep you from running that night
Goodbye..
(Chorus)
So baby tell me all you rsecrets and your lies
I'll tell you mine
'Cuz lately I've been thinking we ain't got the time
late in the nights
'Cuz its a long, long, long way down
And its a God, God, God damn shame
We can't stick around...
(Bridge)
And I believed in all those words I've felt the worst
And is it hard to think maybe I deserve the best
But you got loaded and went off and lost your head
And now I'm lying here tucked back in my bed
Where you want me to sleep on your lies
To keep me from living my life
My life..
(Chorus)
So baby tell me all your secrets and your lies
I'll tell you mine
'Cuz lately I've been thinking we ain't got the time
Late in the nights (x2)
'Cuz its a long, long, long way down
When it's a God, God, God damn shame
Yeah, it's a God, God, God damn shame
You couldn't stick around..
