Let me get this out..
Every night, I would tell you goodnight
And that in the morning,
the sun would rise again..
making all things, new.
I wanted those first rays of light
to find you, still alive
You were so very much hanging
by a thread back then.
I am a strange, strange man
as if you didn't already know,
But I have been gifted with the ability
to truly save you
(And you know it,
through.. and through.)
If you die.. I will take it on
as solely, my blame--
for not pushing you harder
with everything I know, Love can do..
It will make you hate me
as it saves the precious life, in you.
She'll let you in her house
If you come knocking late at night
She'll let you in her mouth
If the words you say are right
If you pay the price
She'll let you deep inside..
But there's a secret garden she hides.
She'll let you in her car
To go driving around
She'll let you into the parts of herself
That will bring you down
She'll let you in her heart
If you got a hammer and a vise..
But into her secret garden,
don't think twice.
You've gone a million miles
How far'd you get..
To that place where you can't remember
And you can't forget
She'll lead you down a path
There will be tenderness in the air
She'll let you come just far enough
So you know she's really there
Then she'll look at you and smile
And her eyes will say--
She's got a secret garden
Where everything you want
Where everything you need..
Will always stay
A million miles away
