I've been waiting
all night long
I've been waiting
to sing your song
tonight

if you help me -
just help me find your key

run my hands down your neck
across your back
to another fret
i know
you're fragile

- you're bound to self destruct

and I can see
right through your skin
your bones are hollow
they're paper thin

tonight
you're weightless
I know the way you feel

so try -
try lifting all your weight
for a man
a man gone wrong

try -
try wasting all your days
on a man
a man like me

my love is a lot like yours
it's been crippled
by the wars we've waged
we're hopeless
we're on the losing side

we never speak
when we're making love
you never mean it
when you come to me
with your arms outstretched
defenseless and alone

so try
try lifting all your weight
for a man
a man gone wrong

try -
try wasting all your days
on a man
a man like me

i taste you on my fingers
and i smell you on my lips
i don't know where you're going
but you're going to slip

hey honey (honey)
you better save yourself
you're never gonna make it [x2]

try -
try lifting all your weight
for a man
a man gone wrong

so try -
try wasting all your days
on a man
a man like me
