[00:55.24] Gonna find a way to cure this loneliness
[00:59.36] Yeah I'll find a way to cure the pain
[01:01.67] If I said that you're my friend
[01:03.49] And our love would never end
[01:04.88] How long before I had your trust again
[01:06.22] I opened up the doors when it was cold outside
[01:09.42] Hopin' that you'd find your own way in
[01:13.78] But how can I protect you
[01:15.78] Or try not to neglect you
[01:18.01] When you won't take the love I have to give
[01:22.10] I bought me an illusion
[01:23.96] An I put it on the wall
[01:26.13] I let it fill my head with dreams
[01:28.96] And I had to have them all
[01:30.42] But oh the taste is never so sweet
[01:32.45] As what you'd believe it is -
[01:36.65] well I guess it never is
[01:38.08] It's these prejudiced illusions
[01:39.87] that pump the blood
[01:40.86] To the heart of the biz
[01:51.47] You know I never thought
[01:52.56] that it could take so long
[01:53.92] You know I never knew how to be strong
[01:55.31] Yeah, I let you shape me
[01:58.25] But it feels as though you raped me
[02:00.54] 'Cause you climbed inside my world
[02:04.78] And in my songs
[02:06.95] So now I've closed the door
[02:07.99] to keep the cold outside
[02:08.92] Seems somehow I've found the will to live
[02:12.88] But how can I forget you
[02:14.94] or try not to reject you
[02:17.08] When we both know it takes time to forgive
[02:23.95] Sweetness is a virtue
[02:26.44] and you lost your virtue long ago
[02:27.48] You know I'd like to hurt you
[02:28.97] but my conscience always tells me no
[02:32.95] You could sell your body on the street
[02:34.06] to anyone whom you might meet
[02:35.66] Who'd love to try and get inside
[02:37.55] and bust your innocence open wide
[02:39.66] 'Cause my baby's got a locomotive
[02:41.92] My baby's gone off the track
[02:43.99] My baby's got a locomotive
[02:45.53] Got ta peel the bitch off my back
[02:48.35] I know it looks like I'm insane
[02:52.24] Take a closer look I'm not to blame
[02:58.08] No
[02:59.73] Gonna have some fun with my frustrations
[03:09.02] Gonna watch the big screen in my head
[03:12.74] I'd rather take a detour
[03:14.90] 'cause this road ain't gettin' clearer
[03:17.18] Your train of thought has cut me off again
[03:21.47] Better tame that boy 'cause he's a wild one
[03:25.22] Better tame that boy for he's a man
[03:29.13] Sweetheart don't make me laugh
[03:33.32] you's gettin' too big for your pants
[03:34.01] And I's think maybe you should
[03:36.69] cut out while you can
[03:37.81] You can use your illusion -
[03:39.53] Let it take you where it may
[03:41.77] We live and learn
[03:42.95] and then sometimes it's best to walk away
[03:44.02] Me I'm just here hangin' on
[03:48.62] It's my only place to stay at least
[03:50.38] For now anyway
[03:52.29] I've worked too hard for my illusions
[03:53.70] Just to throw them all away
[04:04.23] I'm taking time quiet consolation
[04:08.06] In passing by this love that's passed away
[04:12.16] I know it's never easy -
[04:14.09] so why should you believe me
[04:15.72] When I've always got so many things to say
[04:16.48] Calling off the dogs a simple choice is made
[04:24.18] 'Cause playful hearts
[04:25.86] can sometimes be enraged
[04:28.03] You know I tried to wake you -
[04:30.03] I mean how long could it take you
[04:31.94] To open up your eyes and turn the page
[04:37.87] Kindness is a treasure -
[04:39.85] and it's one towards me you've seldom shown
[04:42.69] So I'd say it for a good measure
[04:44.48] To all the ones like you I've known
[04:46.83] Ya know I'd like to shave your head
[04:48.96] And all my friends could paint it red
[04:50.90] 'Cause love to me's a two way street
[04:53.08] An all I really want is peace
[04:55.18] But my baby's got a locomotive
[04:57.21] My baby's gone off the track
[04:59.47] My baby's got a locomotive
[05:01.20] Got ta peel the bitch off my back
[05:03.95] I know it looks like I'm insane
[05:07.84] Take a closer look I'm not to blame
[05:12.25] No
[05:43.37] Affection is a blessing
[05:44.97] Can you find it in your sordid heart
[05:47.24] I tried to keep this thing ta-gether
[05:48.97] But the tremor tore my pad apart
[05:51.67] Yeah I know it's hard to face
[05:53.48] When all we've worked for's gone to waste
[05:55.43] But you're such a stupid woman
[05:56.53] and I'm such a stupid man
[05:57.78] But love like time's got its own plans
[05:59.76] 'Cause my baby's got a locomotive
[06:01.82] My baby's gone off the track
[06:03.77] My baby's got a locomotive
[06:05.52] Got ta peel the bitch off my back
[06:06.26] I know it looks like I'm insane
[06:12.00] Take a closer look I'm not to blame
[06:16.77] Yeah
[06:21.23] If love is blind I guess I'll buy myself a cane
[06:22.26] Love's so strange
[06:24.36]
