Lately you've been questioning
My love for you
Well, I've got none for me
And I've got two for you
The two of hearts tattooed on my chest
Etched upon my brain
And though I can't express
In simple phrases what I feel for you
'Cause in a soul of fire
Contradictions brew
And the sea in me
Is bound to boil and burn
And splash and spill all over you
And there, this is your answer Claire
I can't guarantee that I'll be true
But on the sleepless city nights
I'm just a shadow 'neath the street lights
Who would die for you
I would die for you
By myself, by myself again
Another victim of the road
I played my show now there's no way home
And there's nowhere in this town to go
So I grabbed my coat
From the hotel lounge
Bummed a cigarette
And found the exit out
And the rain reflection on the street
Could wash the whole damned city upside down
And there, this is your answer Claire
I can't guarantee that I'll be true
But on the sleepless city nights
I'm just a shadow 'neath the street lights
Who would die for you
I would die for you
I would die for you
I would die for you
And there, this is your answer Claire
I can't guarantee that I'll be there
But on the sleepless city nights
I'm just a shadow 'neath the street lights
Who would die for you
I would die for you
I would die for you
I would die for you
I would die for you
I would die for you
