Gonna find a way to cure this loneliness Yeah I ll find a way to cure the pain If I said that you re my friend And our love would never end How long before I had your trust again I opened up the doors when it was cold outside Hopin that you d find your own way in But how can I protect you Or try not to neglect you When you won t take the love I have to give I bought me an illusion An I put it on the wall I let it fill my head with dreams And I had to have them all But oh the taste is never so sweet As what you d believe it is - well I guess it never is It s these prejudiced illusions that pump the blood To the heart of the biz You know I never thought that it could take so long You know I never knew how to be strong Yeah
I let you shape me But it feels as though you raped me Cause you climbed inside my world And in my songs So now I ve closed the door to keep the cold outside Seems somehow I ve found the will to live But how can I forget you or try not to reject you When we both know it takes time to forgive Sweetness is a virtue and you lost your virtue long ago You know I d like to hurt you but my conscience always tells me no You could sell your body on the street to anyone whom you might meet Who d love to try and get inside and bust your innocence open wide Cause my baby s got a locomotive My baby s gone off the track My baby s got a locomotive Got ta peel the bitch off my back I know it looks like I m insane Take a closer look I m not to blame No Gonna have some fun with my frustrations Gonna watch the big screen in my head I d rather take a detour cause this road ain t gettin clearer Your train of thought has cut me off again Better tame that boy cause he s a wild one Better tame that boy for he s a man Sweetheart don t make me laugh you s gettin too big for your pants And I s think maybe you should cut out while you can You can use your illusion - Let it take you where it may We live and learn and then sometimes it s best to walk away Me I m just here hangin on It s my only place to stay at least For now anyway I ve worked too hard for my illusions Just to throw them all away I m taking time quiet consolation In passing by this love that s passed away I know it s never easy - so why should you believe me When I ve always got so many things to say Calling off the dogs a simple choice is made Cause playful hearts can sometimes be enraged You know I tried to wake you - I mean how long could it take you To open up your eyes and turn the page Kindness is a treasure - and it s one towards me you ve seldom shown So I d say it for a good measure To all the ones like you I ve known Ya know I d like to shave your head And all my friends could paint it red Cause love to me s a two way street An all I really want is peace But my baby s got a locomotive My baby s gone off the track My baby s got a locomotive Got ta peel the bitch off my back I know it looks like I m insane Take a closer look I m not to blame No Affection is a blessing Can you find it in your sordid heart I tried to keep this thing ta-gether But the tremor tore my pad apart Yeah I know it s hard to face When all we ve worked for s gone to waste But you re such a stupid woman and I m such a stupid man But love like time s got its own plans Cause my baby s got a locomotive My baby s gone off the track My baby s got a locomotive Got ta peel the bitch off my back I know it looks like I m insane Take a closer look I m not to blame Yeah If love is blind I guess I ll buy myself a cane Love s so strange |
