Not Her

Dripping with longing,
I stare
at you.
Crying with fever,
I lunge
for you.

Waiting to tell you how I feel,
I feel like you could let me smile.
Wanting so badly to appeal,
I push my bad traits into a pile.

I want you to see me,
I want you to feel me,
I want you to forget
all about her.

I want you to tell me,
I want you to touch me,
I want you far away
from her.

Can't you open your eyes
and try to fill my skies
with happiness,
no more madness.

Don't you realize
that she held only lies
with her slyness;
I am innocence.

(I am, I am innocence)

Crazy for warmth,
my mouth
wants yours.
Empty of magic,
I hope
for more.

Will you give me what I need?
I need only your words to soar.
Fill me with your love, I plead,
nothing else, no nothing more.

I want you to hear me,
I want you to kiss me,
I want you closed down
for her.

I want you to know me,
I want you to stroke me,
I want you deaf and blind
for her.

Can't you open your eyes
and try to fill my skies
with happiness,
no more madness.

Don't you realize
that she held only lies
with her slyness;
I am innocence.

I fed you with words,
you dined with her in sin.
Why did I think that
you could ever listen?

You need to move on now,
she never took you seriously.
You now try to forget her,
now you see you are losing me.

Can't you open your eyes
and try to fill my skies
with happiness,
no more madness.

Can't you open your eyes
and try to fill my skies
with happiness,
no--more--madness.

Yeah, da de da de da-ah
whoa, no more madness,
da de da de da-ah, de-da da-de de-da-de-da-de-da-de-daaa.

Can't you open your eyes
and try to fill my skies
with happiness,
no more madness.

Don't you realize
that she held only lies
with her slyness;
I am innocence.

(Oh)

Can't you open your eyes
and try to fill my skies
with happiness,
no more madness.

Don't you realize
that she held only lies
with her slyness;
I am innocence.

I wanted you to trust me, (da-de-da-de)
I wanted you to grab me, (da-de-da-de-da)
I wanted you, not her.
Back home!
