I’m torn to pieces, I’m broken down I still see your face when you’re not around I sit here in misery wondering if I’ll ever be Half the man you wanted me to be Even though I know you’re not gonna come back I can’t wash it away It’s tearing me to pieces

Dead or alive They found a dirty faced kid in a garbage can And I'm alone And I'm on the highway Wanted dead or alive We was broke and hungry on a summer day They sent the sheriff down to try and drive us away We was sittin' ducks for the police man I'm

I've been seeing all, I've been seeing your soul Give me things that I wanted to know Tell me thing that you've done I've been feeling old, I've been feeling cold You're the heat that I know See, you are my sun Hush, I said there's more to life than rush

You're sleeping, son, I know But, really, this can't wait I wanted to explain Before it gets too late For your mother and me Love has finally died This is no happy home But God knows how I've tried

Mary, Mary, why you want to do me this way Mary, Mary, why you want to do me this way? I was dumb enough not to settle down when you wanted to Now I'm sittin' here going crazy trying to crawl back to you But I was smart enough to come to my senses Be who

You are, you are And nothing else compares Home, home, where I wanted to go Home, home, where I wanted to go (You are) The lights go out and I can't be saved Tides that I tried to swim against Have brought me down upon my knees Oh I beg, I beg and plead,

Oh, my god, I cry in fear Afraid you have forgot me here Afraid you haven’t gotten long Your quiet dove and faithful son I kept the promises I made I went to work, I worked all day When I wanted to run, I stayed Little children came and grew Moved away

Never wanted anything so bad She got me wishing that she could stay Doesn't even know that I missed my plane Not a single thing I wouldn't trade For a ticket to L.A It was midnight in the middle of JFK Trying to take her mind off the fallin' rain

Yeah, layin' in her underwear I just wanted you to notice me Tryin to see what’s under there I don’t wanna ruin it But you got me excited I just wanna stop and stare Wanna see where this could go But I can see just where this is goin' For who I am

(This is what you really want) (This is what you asked for) I won't let you go So don't let go of me I wanted something more I wanted this right here No one can ever follow No one can ever know Wind up the spinning top and watch it go, watch it go
