Maybe I called you over, maybe it came from you
A kind of madness, brought on by the rain
Maybe I took for granted our talent to be immune
From our own sadness, just a game we played
You cursed us both with tears, but desperate years do end
And I can be a good friend, I can be a joker
But you can choke me up now baby, with a single glance
And if I had my way, I'd embrace the world and lay us both at your feet
And when I'm being crazy
Singing the saddest songs, you've ever heard
Waking at dawn spilling words and fevered dreams
Oh will you, will you, will you, will you…comfort me?
Someone I don't care to mention told me once I was meant
To be parted from all I would love
So with the best intentions, try to hold on to what I can
But man, what a farce, I have lost who I was
This penance serves me well, now only time will tell
If I can be your good friend
Sure I can be a joker
But you can choke me up now, baby
With a single glance
And if I have my way
I'll embrace the world and lay it all at your feet
And when sometimes I am crazy
I sing the saddest song you ever heard
I wake at dawn spilling words from bitter dreams
Then will you, will you, will you, will you…comfort me?
Cursed us both with tears, but when this year does end
I want to be your good friend, want to be your joker
Want to choke you up now, baby, with a single glance
And if I had my way, I'd embrace the world
Lay us both at your feet
And when I'm being crazy
Singing the saddest songs you've heard
Waking at dawn spilling words and fevered dreams
Oh will you, will you, will you, will you…comfort me?
