If you wipe the slate
|
let me start again from this moment on
|
We've been through this before
|
every single time that i thought you had gone
|
Well I'm out of reserve
|
I'm out of my wherewithal,
|
but when the moment comes
|
when I've got nothing left
|
I find I've got it all
|
see what I know
|
I can't always believe
|
a poison kiss
|
can taste like a reprieve
|
and once again, i'm caught up from the evenfall.
|
I know it's late
|
I'm never in this frame of mind any earlier
|
I can judge the hour by
|
how much of what I see
|
is no more than a blur
|
Well I'm down on my knees
|
looking for some kind of antidote
|
When that moment comes
|
I keep one thing in mind that keeps my head afloat
|
What I believe
|
ain't always what I feel
|
another chance can sting like naked steel
|
and once again I'm caught up from the evenfall
|
It's a mystery can't you see
|
why you'd still be here with me
|
I don't need no guarantee
|
but don't even turn from me
|
don't ever turn me away.
