You coulda had anything that you wanted
you coulda been sitting on top of the world
but now you seem like you're haunted
and I shoulda left you when I could
It's so hard to keep on smiling
you never even really share that much
so hard to keep believin'
that you really appreciate my touch
CHORUS :
WHAT-YOU'RE TAKING IS TOO PRECIOUS TO NAME
IT'S ALWAYS THE SAME-WHY ON EARTH CAN'T YOU SEE x 2
Iou say you can't trust anybody
but tell me have you ever tried
and slowly, slowly
I think I'm coming out of confusion love made me feel x2
I find out a little more each day, what you call love just can't be real
everytime you call my name I feel I have this kind of pain
CHORUS AD LIB

No, no there hasn't been another man
woman, spirit or thought that hurt me so bad
so lost was I, in the desert so long
that spiders and snakes crawled out to sing me a song
CHORUS :
DREAMS DRAG AROUND MY HEAD
FOG IS CLOGGIN’ MY EYES UP, ALL RED
FRUITS I CAN’T EAT ROT IN A BOWL
VIBES I CAN’T BEAT RATTLE MY SOUL
A mere whisper at first
it became a howling chant
wouldn't let me go, I insisted I can't leave him I just can't
as it rose and rose louder from the depths
reaching my heart, my soul, my mind
I had to face the deaths
of this love, of that life
no longer prisons would confine me
no longer could the warden bribe me
CHORUS :
DREAMS DRAG AROUND MY HEAD
FOG IS CLOGGIN’ MY EYES UP, ALL RED
FRUITS I CAN’T EAT ROT IN A BOWL
VIBES I CAN’T BEAT RATTLE MY SOUL
Leftover soup is drippin’ down the drain
why not I skip a dish and wash my brain....
