Will I Ever Understand You |
Mirror mirror tell me beware
Coldly revealing all the faces I wear
From a teasing smile for boys on the street
To a shifty glance for eyes looking too deep
Feel the light as it shines so bright
Will I ever understand you
Reach inside the truth is alive
Will I ever understand you
Always fighting to find out why
But it seems the answer fades into a white flag sky
Feel the light as it shines so bright
Will I ever understand you
Mirror Mirror tell me no lies
Never concealing the truth I deny
People as playthings, games with no rules
Queen takes King on a knight for a fool
Mirror Mirror I could turn away
From cracks on the glass and lines on my face
Seven years searching - Will this ever end
A second's reflection I'm searching again
Will I ever understand you
Will I ever, never
We cross the street
You hold my hand
Afraid to let go
And if I walked away
And left you there
Would you know why
You are the answer now
You don't know
You can be everything
You don't know
You won't believe it now
You don't know anymore
You are the reason and the rhyme
We walk into your room
A mirror's caught your reflection
You walk away and call to me
To fill in the frame
You are the only one
You don't know
You are the fire of love
You don't know
You can believe it now
You don't know anymore
You are the reason and the rhyme
I walk this road
You follow me
I don't know why
And if I walked away
And left you there
Would you know why?
Something you've heard, somewhere you've seen
Too real to ignore
You've chosen not to believe
From the black of their pain, to the white of their fear
In the dust they die
While Eden lies near
The freedom bought, changed hands, was sold
This heat of love has turned ice-cold
We just can't escape it
Like flames reaching out from the sun
We can't defeat it
Like flames reaching out from the sun
From the garden of love, been banished too long
And the balance will shift
Between the week and the strong
Once they would beg and they would plead
But now they demand
Divided by those that need
And those that command
The freedom bought, changed hands, was sold
The heat of love has turned ice-cold and
We never learn but we know too well
Heaven's died and gone to Hell
Now you watch but you should have run
Like flames that leap from the base of the sun
And you dream you're free but you'll awake
Too much too late, too much too late
Watching as you sleep so easy
Wonder why
I'm wide awake and left alone shaking
Satisfy me need and desire
Still I cry
Paralyzed, our love tearing me apart
I love you more each day
I love the music you play on my heartstrings
I feel you in every way
Reach for touch
You play on my heartstrings
We used to awake into morning
Time stood still
I slept in your arms, content to go on dreaming
A nightmare too real to imagine
Losing you
Paralyzed tonight, tearing me apart
You wake to the sound of another day
Smile at me
And I hate that I want you
And nobody ever made me feel
Feel the way I do now
Watching every motion
In my foolish lover's game
On this endless ocean
Finally lovers know no shame
Turning and returning
To some secret place inside
Watching in slow motion
As you turn around and say
Take my breath away
Watching I keep waiting
Still anticipating love
Never hesitating
To became the fated ones
Through the hourglass I saw you
In time you slipped away,
When the mirror crashed I called you
And turned to hear you say
If only for today
I am unafraid
Take My Breath Away
Watching every motion
In this foolish lover's game
Haunted by the notion
Somewhere there's a love in flames
Turning and returning
To some secret place inside
Watching in slow motion
As you turn around and say
Feeling nervous, I'm feeling so strange
Just a prisoner wanting to escape
Let go feel your body let go of your mind
A walk on the wild side calls you
Safety in numbers pulls you in
Let go feel your body let go of your mind
Live a little trash
Make it fun make it fast
Live a little trash
You can live with your past
Live a little trash
Make it fun make it fast
You can live with your past
Live a little trash
This tug of war is useless
Why not have your cake and eat it too
A little bit naughty, a little risqu
One night living kamikaze
Dive in, do or die and make a splash
Then watch all the water run over the sides
I feel that I've lasted a long line of broken hearts
You say it's over
I want to talk I never thought I would fall apart
But I still love you
Give me the time I'll show you I'm not your enemy
Let's end the cold war
One night is all that I ask
I'm ready to fight 'cause I want you back
A heart need defending
When love goes to war
There's no happy ending
When love goes to war
Tears in the night wash over eyes filled with memories
Of your affections
Where do I stand I never planned on this misery
I need protections
You walk away so easily from the battle grounds
Of my emotions
All's fair in passion and war
But my disadvantage is I'm still in love
I don't want your sympathies
Just give me what I ask
If I appear to make demands
It's only 'cause I want you back
Cool and so breezy
Take it or leave it
Keeping your distance
Arrows to your heart just bounce away
I see you bleeding
Your sad eyes are pleading
The poison is spreading
So cleanse yourself with tears of salvation
Forget the pain
Hideaway in my arms
Where's the shame
Cry away there's no harm
Lost in a nightmare
Falling through thin air
Faster and faster
Love is getting closer and closer
It's time that you wake up
From haircuts and make up
No need to be frightened
Trust in the love that you dream of
You'll be my hero
Start back at zero
Throw off your mask
Freedom at last
Trust in a needed friend
Back against the darkest wall
Knowing that it dare not fall
The mannequin is real
The hair across his empty eye
Says careful mystery is mine
Hide and seek if you desire
I started with hello
By chance are you alone
Silence turned my eyes onto my feet
Sorry to disturb
Losing all my nerve
As I walked away he grabbed my arm
Turned me around and said
Try this
Sex me, talk me
Sex me, talk me
Whirling dervish careless whirl
Dancing wildly for the girls
Challenged by the sudden change
Attention for a baby's cry
Turning eyes to he and I
A smile says the joke's on me
We sat down again
His eyes took me in
Was I having a good time
I said hey Mr. Man
I don't understand
A finger on my lips said stop
A hint is left but never dropped
Try this
Sex me, talk me
Sex me, talk me
Driving home in silent car
I wonder just how much how far
At my place the engine ran
Would you like to come inside
He flashed that smile
No thanks maybe another time
And as he pulled away he cried
Try this
No more lines tonight
So you want just a loving touch
Hold on to me and you won't hurt so much
I want you to be free
But I can't do it all
I'll wear
Pink and velvet for you
I'll wear tonight
Pink and velvet for you
Lost the only love I knew
Hearing death released you
I need someone to talk to
Who can help at all
I wear tonight
Pink and velvet for you
Where is my shining knight
Pink and velvet for you
No more lines tonight
So I will use my loving touch
I give nothing for free
So it won't hurt so much
The needle was our life, our hope
Our trust
Turning into dust
I wear tonight
Pink and velvet for you
Are you my shining knight
Pink and velvet for you
