You talks as if in riddles

You talk as if in rhymes

Down in the lion's lair

Stroke yourself to feel so fine

And what are you afraid of

Afraid to get so touched

When you begin to feel

Is it way, way too much 

Have you lost your sense of purpose

And who can stand alone

There's no more circus here

There's nothing carved in stone

I see you down in the desert

And on a lonely beach

I'll hold you in those places

Where no one else can reach you

For comfort there



In your wildest dreams

We can talk until we say something

It don't mean a thing

I will be there

When you come back down oh yeah



I'll hold you in the desert

And on a lonely beach

I'll hold you in these places

Where no one else can reach you

The words cannot reveal this

Nothing's carved in stone

So maybe don't hide around it

This is something you can own



I want you when you're bad

I want you when you're good

I want you when you won't

And when you think you should

I want you when you're angry

And when you come back down

I'll hold you above water

When you think that you might drown

Go under



I look back in

And you'll be smiling once again

I turn around

Just as the sun comes shining in on you

We have not lost

But just begun



In your wildest dreams

We can talk until we say something

It don't mean a thing

For now and ever

We've just begun
