I could never fall for you
But the tension makes the air so blue
I would never have the time
To watch you every day and night but,
Maybe if I let myself
Come down from this dusty shelf
You're messing with my head again
Got me seeing red again, so
Take me to the place you hide
Where the truth belongs outside
Tell me all I need to hear
All you want and all you fear.
Take me to the place you love
Where we fit like heavens glove
Take the pictures off the wall
And make me feel there's nothing more
Though I couldn't ask of you,
Something I could never do
Thought I couldn't ever need
Someone that would make me plead so
Wish that I could pace myself
Instead I could erase myself
A conscience in a big glass jar
I never thought I'd get this far, so
Take me to the place you hide
Where the truth belongs outside
Tell me all I need to hear
All you want and all you fear.
Take me to the place you love
Where we fit like heavens glove
Take the pictures off the wall
And make me feel there's nothing more
Do you regret the times you've prayed?
It's not the things you took
But the things that you've thrown away.
Still, I knew it all.
Take me to the place you hide
Where the truth belongs outside
Tell me all I need to hear
All you want and all you fear.
Take me to the place you love
Where we fit like heavens glove
Take the pictures off the wall
And make me feel there's nothing more
