The rope that's wrapped around me
is cutting my skin
And the doubts that have surrounded me
Are finding their way in
I keep it close to me
Like a holy man prays
In my desperate hour
It's better that way

So I'll come by and see you again
I'll be such a very good friend
Have mercy on my soul
I will never let you know
Where my mind has been
Angels never came down
There's no one here they want
to hang around
But if they knew
If they knew you at all
Then one by one the angels
Angels would fall

I've crept into your temple
I have slept upon your pew
I've dreamed of the divinity
Inside and out of you
I want it more than truth
I can taste it on my breath
I would give my life just for a little death

So I'll come by and see you again
I'll be just a very good friend
I will not look upon your face
I will not touch upon your grace
Your ecclesiastic skin

I'll come by and see you again
I'll have to be a very good friend
If I whisper they will know
I'll just turn around and go
You will never know my sin

Is it so hard to satisfy your senses
You found out to love me you have to climb some fences
Scratching and crawling along the floor to touch you
And just when it feels right you say you found someone else to hold you
Does she like i do?

(CHORUS)
Tell me does she love you like the way I love you?
Does she stimulate you, attract and captivate you?
Tell me does she miss you, existing just to kiss you like the way I do?
Tell me does she want you, infatuate and haunt you
Does she know just how to shock you, electrify and rock you
Does she inject you, seduce you and affect you like the way I do?

Can I survive all the implications
Even if I tried could you be less than an addiction
Don't you think I know there's so many others
Who would beg, steal and lie, fight, kill and die
Just to hold you hold you like I do

(CHORUS)

Nobody loves you like the way I do
Nobody wants you like the way I do
Nobody needs you like the way I do
Nobody aches nobody aches just to hold you like the way I do

(CHORUS)

Come on baby let's get out of this town.
I got a full tank of gas with the top rolled down.
There's a chill in my bones.
I don't want to be left alone.
So baby you can sleep while I drive.
I'll pack my bag and load up my guitar.
In my pocket I'll carry my harp.
I got some money I saved.
Enough to get underway.
And baby you can sleep while I drive.

We'll go thorough Tucson up to Santa Fe.
And Barbara in Nashville says we're welcome to stay.
I'll buy you glasses in Texas a hat from New Orleans.
And in the morning you can tell me your dreams.

You know I've seen it before.
This mist that covers your eyes.
You've been looking for something.
That's not in your life.
My intentions are true.
Won't you take me with you.
And baby you can sleep while I drive.

Oh is it other arms you want to.
Hold you the stranger.
The lover you're free.
Can't you get that with me.

Come on baby let's get out of this town.
I got a full tank of gas with the top rolled down.
If you won't take me with you.
I'll go before night is through.
And baby you can sleep while I drive.

You tell me not to call you up.
Cause it ties you down.
Don't tell your friends.
You've been hangin' round.
You must be crazy for me.

You say you'll see me once or twice.
Every week or two.
There's more important things.
That you've got to do.
You must be crazy for me.

Cause when I kissed you last night.
In my own backyard.
You ran so fast.
And you fought so hard.
You must be crazy for me.
You must be crazy for me.

You don't like my hair.
You don't like my car.
You don't like my friends.
You met at the bar.
You must be crazy for me.

I see you shake you head.
And you roll your eyes.
Your firm remark.
To remove my thigh.
You must be crazy for me.

Cause when I kissed you last night.
In my own backyard.
You ran so fast.
And you fought so hard.
You must be crazy for me.
You must be crazy for me.

Do not expect you to wait.
Do not expect you to phone.
Do not expect anything.
When I catch you alone.
You must be crazy for me.

Cause when I kissed you last night.
In my own backyard.
You ran so fast.
And you fought so hard.
You must be crazy for me.
You must be crazy for me.
