Go on and close your eyes, (go on) imagine me there

[verse]:


you never had to wait for nothing in your life

         
i guess wanting you must have been a steel blue knife

          
and when night after night the scent of passion would linger

    
you had to have the jewels wrapped around your finger

                                           
now you keep running down the road in your midnight state of mind

                        
curiosity kills  if you can't read the signs


[chorus]

 
dancing with the ?wall made you bitter sweet

            
there ain't much you can do when they just lay it at your feet

               
but could you tell by the song I wanted to be the one

         
did you listen again when the damage was done

                                  
 now the paint's still wet in your do-it-by-number dream

                                             
were you gonna tell me how it felt, will you tell me what it means

[chorus]


[bridge]:

                   
was it want with no desire

                   
was it smoke with no fire

       
did I say it doesn't rip me apart, I lied

     
I'm sorry dear my ha-----ands are ...
