I live off love, I feed off love, I breathe off love
I think of love, I drink of love, I sink in love
And in the middle of the night I need my love
I need to grieve and need to need and be in love
My love is gonna come to me
Tonight
I give my love and all my love to you, my love
I feast on love, a beast for love, release my love
You're scared and unprepared for love, don't care, my love
'Cause you're the only woman I've been dreamin' of
I swear to God, I'm lovin' you for life
I swear to God, I'm making you my wife
And if you ever leave me
I never will be sore
I'll love you 'til you're lonely
Then I'll love you some more, just before, oh
Beauty, beauty, beauty
There's nobody near me
There never was
Beauty, beauty, beauty
There's nobody near me
There never was

You look so good in the clothes of a poser
And when you smiled all the kids fell apart here
I know a place where it's warm and it's dry, dear
Let me take you there
North of the river all the streets are the same
We can pretend that they don't know our name
And the heat is turned all the way to full
So don't pretend that you don't feel the pull
I am trying to say
What I want to say
Without having to say
"I love you"
You look so good in the shoes of an outcast
I kissed your throat every time they said it wouldn't last
But then I knew you, I knew you, I knew you
I really knew you
We fell apart in the parties of the empty heart
We danced the junkies in the shadows of bad modern art
We clicked our heels and we wished we were home
One more tab and your silk hits the chrome
I am trying to say
What I want to say
Without having to say
"I love you"
I am trying to say
What I want to say
Without having to say
"I love you"
Spring comes in when I'm rolling up another one
I draw the curtains in the glare of the same old sun
We are collapsed in the act of just being here
Three blues, two greens and a beer
We are collapsed in the act of just being here
Three blues, two greens and a beer
I am trying to say
What I want to say
Without having to say
"I love you"
I am trying to say
What I want to say
Without having to say
"I love you"
I love you (and it's impossible to say)
I love you (and I've nothing to say)
I love you

Now I'm thinking maybe I was stoned
I felt my feet lift off the ground
And my heart was screaming
At my bones, I need you closer
As he's in the middle of the street
Then I pretend he is mine to keep
Cars are running fast on both sides of his head
His eyes say, closer
Closer, closer
I met him when the sun was down
The bar was closed
We both have had no sleep
My face beneath the streetlamp
It reveals what it is lonely people seek
Closer, closer
Closer, closer
And, you're close enough to lose
Close to the point where you know that your mind
It can not choose
Close enough to lose
Close enough to lose
Your heart
Now I'm thinking maybe I was stoned
I felt my feet lift off the ground
And my heart was screaming
At my bones, I need you closer
Closer, closer
You met me when the sun was down
And the bar was closed
We both have had no sleep
My face beneath the streetlamp
It reveals what it is lonely people seek
Closer, closer
Closer, closer
Then you're close enough to lose
Close to the point where you know that your mind
It can not choose
Close enough to lose
Close enough to lose
Your heart
