Something's frying on the floor below
I'm leaning out my window
The sky's on fire, the street's all aglow
And somebody's singing to the radio

I would jump from the sixteenth floor if I only could get next to you
Put my head in a lion's jaw if I only could get next to you

I'm walking the floor, I'm climbing the walls
I wake up from dreaming, that's when I fall

I would jump from the sixteenth floor if I could only get next to you
Put my head in a lion's jaw if I only could get next to you
Take a ride on a wrecking ball

Every day I speak your name
If I had wings I'd fly 'cause you're not here to hold me
I would jump from the sixteenth floor
Put my head in a lion's jaw
I'd walk on burning coals
I'd sell my only soul

Every day I speak your name
If I had wings I'd fly 'cause you're not here to hold me

I'd walk on burning coal,
I'd sell my only soul
I would jump from the sixteenth floor,
put my head in a lion's jaw
Take a ride on Niagara Falls if I only could get next to you
