WRITTEN BY KEVIN BACON, MICHAEL BACON

|
You scared me when I met you
|
The way you sparkled in the dark
|
I drove around for hours
|
But you never showed your heart
|
You took me in your arms
|
That smelled of oranges and sage
|
You tempted me with glory
|
Until I was your slave
|
Then you took me to the party
|
You said you loved to watch me dance
|
But you took home the latest thing
|
And there was no second chance
|
|
CHORUS
|
Now your mountain's on fire your river's run dry
|
I got a burning desire to kiss an angel good bye
|
Climbing out of your smokescreen the weather looks clear
|
Leave an angel below me in the City of Fear
|
|
You scare me when I see you
|
Because I remember times we had
|
How you shook me like a baby
|
Who had swallowed something bad
|
You scare me because I need you
|
Like a roof over my head
|
Like a baby needs new shoes
|
Mama's milk and daddy's bread
|
But you distrust my honesty
|
And you distrust my car
|
And you don't like the way I look
|
When I'm playing my guitar
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
Sometimes I'm your lover your white knight your shining star
|
Sometimes I'm a dinosaur And I'm sinking in your tar
|
|
