Tambu

I left you crying on that angry morning
You know i lied
I'll always run from anything that loves me to my safe side
My world circles 'round a different sun
That's all burned away
I know that you're the only one
Now i'm walking down some distant street
And i know your touch is out of reach.

Girl you belong to me i know
And it was wrong for me to ever let you go
Girl you belong to me i know.

Everybody has a lonely moment
They can't explain
And everybody wants to feed their hunger
Without the pain.

There's no shadows in my hiding place
I'm so locked away
Now i wish that i could see your face
I know i hurt you when you say we're through
I never really will get over you 'cause...

Girl you belong to me i know
And it was wrong for me to ever let you go
Girl you belong to me i know.

Girl you belong to me i know.

And it was wrong rof me to ever let you go.

All this pain surrounding me; hopelessness is all that i see now
Does it have to be this way?
Brought up on hypocrisy
The seeds they sow don't last forever
They just fade away...

Don't be confused by the lies of the fools and deceivers
Hope and believe in the things that we need to survive

We can make it if we'd only take the gift of faith
We can change it if we'd just accept the gift of faith

Take away my dignity
Take away my hope and my freedom
You got a world full of rage
Don't cover me with apathy
Don't buy and sell what i believe in
Don't lock me in a cage

In a world where no one's alone, trust should come easily
Just reach out your hand, and i'll give you mine.

We can make it if we'd only take the gift of faith
We can change it if we'd just accept the gift of faith

Don't be confused by the lies of the fools and deceivers
Hope and believe in the things that we need to survive

We can make if if we'd only take the gift of faith
We can change it if we'd just accept the gift of faith
We can make if if we'd only take the gift of faith
It's yours to choose but only fools refuse the gift of faith.

I was born in the land of the sun and the tall green grass
And i don't understand how all this has come to pass
How we've come to surround ourselves in a sea of thieves
In a land without learning only the fools believe.

I went driving last night on a dark canyon road
Had the sky to myself but i wasn't alone
Had the pain of my lifetime for my company
How did it end up like this for you and me?

When love breaks the promise the heart has to keep
It leaves only truth here to find
When the spirit is crushed and the hurt is so deep
Between you and i.

Even when love has come and gone and our hearts have moved along
I will remember.
There was a time we had the trust
And that always was enough
I will remember. i will remember you.

As i open my eyes to one more day
The wind burns my face as it whispers your name
As it's pulling me forward it tears me free
And the only thing left is the tears for and me.

'cause when love breaks the promise the heart has to keep
It leaves only truth here to find
When the spirit is crushed and hurt is so deep
Between you and i.


Even when love has come and gone and our hearts have moved along
I will remember.
There was a time we had the trust
And that always was enough
I will remember. i will remember you.

They keep looking through the window
A cathode glaze across their eyes
Now that i've been betrayed
I must be well behaved...
I'll drink corruption with their lies.

Why was i hiding out?
What am i running from?
Why are they waiting?
Have i always been the choosen one?

Drag him to the roof
Just push me over
I've got no better place to be
Drag hime to the roof
Let's get it over...
It's a perfect day to punish me.

I wish that lady would defend me
I can't abide by all the laws
I'll buy the magistrate, can't be a second late...
I anxiously await his call.

Who made this jigsaw puzzle?
Who'll put the pieces back?
Who'll come and get me when i have fallen through the cracks?

Drag him to the roof
Just push me over
I've got no better place to be
Drag hime to the roof
Let's get it over...
It's a perfect day to punish me.

I'm driving' through the rain
Just to talk to you again
Please don't run away this time
Until i say what's on my mind.

Tonight i need to stay with you
This time i'm not passing through
Tear down the walls around your heart
And though i know it's who you are...

I just can't get to you girl
Oh yeah, i just can't get to you
If you won't let me through girl
Oh no, i just can't get to you.

You say you really need me here
So i can't let you disappear
Even though it's getting late
Somehow i seem to hesitate.

'cause i just can't get to you girl
Oh yeah, i just can't get to you...
If you won't let me through girl
Oh no, i just can't get to you.

You're afraid that you'll get hurt again
Yes, i knw that's how it feels
Don't surrender, that's no way to win
Let it go, let me in

'cause i just can't get to you
Just can't get to you girl
Oh yeah, just can't get to you
If you won't let me through girl...
Oh no, i just can't get to you

Just can't get to you girl
Oh yeah, just can't get to you
You won't let me thfrough girl...
Oh no, i just can't get to you.

I went down to the highway
That runs between love and pride
And i tried to get sideways
Across the great divide
But my mind's eye's on the key ring
Crying in misery
'cause it won't spend one more evening
Staring back at me.

It may be by choice or a small inner voice i can't say
When you add up the cost we all have a cross
How do you write off the loss?

Where do i go from here?
How do i find my way?
When is it loud and clear
That there's no turning back? no looking back
Where do i go from here?
Nobody gets away
It''s a new kind of fix
For the poor and the rich
You never know what's coming next... at the turning point.

The rules are unwritten
And nobody knows the deal
Where have i been driven
Are deamons behind the wheel?
Yeah, i know my days are numbered
We're only flesh and bone
And i've been left to wonder
How it went so wrong.

Is it all tailor made, can the sinner be saved, i can't say
So don't hang your hat on the knife im my back
'cause nobody treats me like that.

Where do i go from here?
How do i find my way?
When is it loud and clear
That there's no turning back? no looking back
Where do i go from here?
Nobody gets away
It''s a new kind of fix
For the poor and the rich
You never know what's coming next... at the turning point.
