lyrics

hey you, i find it hard to bleed for you - your blood is cold - and mine is wine
hey you, i guess you think you know me -you knew me for a while
hey you i tried so hard to see things through - the pink glass you supplied

hey you, i never really left you – you’re always on my mind
everyday i always think about you – at least a thousand times
i was always hoping you’d come to save me - it’s keeping me a live
i was always hoping for my baby to come and make me shine

hey you, i’ve walked with you a long way - along a jagged line
i could not change the day – my ways are always in the night
hey you, i guess i always knew - you never could be mine
i couldn’t care much less of ya (though) - i’d (still) climb through barbs and wire
hey you i’ll wait for you (‘cuz) i promised to - until you make me shine
hey you i’ll wait for you (‘cuz) i promised to - until you make me shine
