See the photograph on an empty wall Pictures of a life I can't call my own I need a love that won't do me wrong Waiting for the sound of a false alarm The pictures all that I know See the photograph Are the pictures real? Wake me up from the long way

Let’s go wait out in the fields with the ones we love I could walk out, but I won’t In my mind I am in your arms I wish someone would take my place Can’t face heaven all heavenfaced She’s a griever, my believer It’s not a fever, it’s a freezer I believe

C'mon and love me 'Cause I just can't wait Lady, won't you take me down to my knees You can do what you please She's a dancer, a romancer I'm a Capricorn and she's a Cancer She saw my picture in a music magazine When she met me, said she'd get me Touched

This is the virus, the virus of life This is the virus, the virus of life! Watching, bring me to my knees Waiting, I am your disease Lover, set my symptom free Covered, you won't feel a thing This is the virus The virus of life This is inside us

Say you love me Like you mean it Say you need me (Like you mean it) That you won't leave me 'Cause I don't believe it I don't believe it Kill my superstition please, I'm begging Let the words roll of your tongue, I'm waiting

Hard luck story It's a hard luck Don't ask me to love my neighbor Don't ask me to tip the waiter Don't ask me to pray to Jesus Cause I don't love the man Don't ask me for my favors I won't lend a hand And if I had real power

Don't say you don't want me 'Cause I'm too caught up on it Don't think that I'm leaving 'Cause I won't give it up again I want to get it, be my lover today, yeah I'm alright, I want to get some Through the night, be my lover I've been waiting all this

Forever love No matter what I'll be waiting for you I promise you Someday we'll be together I won't give up The first time I laid my eyes on you I knew We'd spend this life side by side I still feel the same though you're so far away

Monday left me broken Tuesday I was through with hoping Wednesday my empty arms were open Thursday waiting for love, waiting for love Thank the stars it's Friday I'm burning like a fire gone wild on Saturday Guess I won't be coming to church on Sunday

Can't keep love at all The pain in my heart just won't end The words that I find just don't seem to compare Waiting til' my death in the end Alone, I must seek out the end to begin So nobody wants death 'Cause nobody wants life to end I'm the only one
