Lyrics
Like they care, come 'round here acting like nothing is wrong
Tip-toe around trying to be invisible
This brutal life makes it hard
Makes it hard to get over when nobody's sober
But I don't want a lot, so to speak
Just to be loved but there's not much to speak of
Except in your eyes
So pour me a drink from your delicious vine
'Cause I don't want to talk about anything else for today
Just want to lay here beside you now
Take all these troubles away
Melt me down 'till I'm whole again
Build me up 'till I'm strong again
And I know you'll say, "Keep moving on just like you did today.
I got you. I got you babe."
You talk about a high-life? A high price to pay.
Once you get inside, everybody wants to pull you down
Except for you, love of my life who surrounds me
With all things beautiful, magical, tangible
Safe in your arms
Wrap up and thrilled in your delicious charms
'Cause I don't want to talk about anything else for today
Just want to lay here beside you now
Take all these troubles away
Bridge:
They want to cause a break down and keep my light from shinning out
But they'll never win with your spell on me
Deep in my sanctuary, I have no weight to carry, like a feather.
I feel like a queen
Fill me up with your wine again
Oh how sweet as I take it in
And I know you'll say "Keep moving on, moving on.
'Cause you don't have to talk about anything.
Come on and lay here beside me now.
I'll take all your troubles away.
No you don't have to talk about anything else for today,
I got you babe."
