I Really Want You

Many Prophets preach on bended knees

Many clerics wasted wine

Do the bloody sheets on those cardboard streets mean?

I have wasted time

Are there silver shores on paradise?

Can I come in from the cold?

I killed a man in a far away land

My enemy untold

I really want you to really want me

But I really don't know if you can do that

I know you want to know what's right

But I know so hard for you to do that

Time's running out as it often does

And often dictates that you can't do that

Fate can't break this feeling inside

That's burning up through my veins

I really want you

I really want you

I really want you

Now

No matter what I say or do

The message isn't getting through

And you're listening to the sound

Of my breaking heart

I really want you

I really want you

Is a poor man rich in solitude?

Or when mother earth complained

Did the beggar pray for a sunny day but

Lady luck for rain

They say a million people bow and scream

To an effigy of gold

As so life begin

And the ship we're in

And history unfold

I really want you to really want me

But I really don't know if you can do that

I know you want to know what’s right

But I know so hard for you to do that

Time's running out as it often does

And often dictates that you can't do that

Fate can't break this feeling inside

That's burning up through my veins

I really want you

I really want you

I really want you

Now

No matter what I say or do

The message isn't getting through

And you're listening to the sound

Of my breaking heart
