Meat Loaf

Meat Loaf - Read 'em And Weep songtekst

Je score:

I`ve been trying for hours just to think of what exactly to say
I thought I`d leave you with a letter or firey speech
Like when an actor makes an exit at the end of a play


And I`ve been dying for hours trying to fill up all the holes with some sense
I`d like to know how you faded and you threw it away
I`d like to give you all the reasons and what everything meant


Well I could tell you good-bye or maybe see you around
With just a touch of a sarcastic thanks
We started out with a bang and at the top of the world
Now the guns are exhausted
The bullets are blanks


And everything`s blank


Chorus:


If I could only find the words then I would write it all down
If I could only find a voice I would speak
Oh it`s there in my eyes so can`t you see me tonight


C`mon and look at me and read `em and weep


chorus


I`ve been whispering softly, trying to build a cry up to a scream
We let the past slip away, and put the future on hold
Now the present is nothing but a hollowed out dream


And I`ve been dying for hours trying to fill up all the holes with some sense
I`d like to know why you faded and you threw it away
I`d like to give you all the reasons and what everything meant


Well I could tell you good-bye or maybe see you around
With just a touch of a sarcastic thanks
But now the rooms are all empty, the candles are dark
The guns are exhausted
The bullets are blanks, and everything`s blank


chorus


It`s there in my eyes and coming straight from my heart
It`s running silent and angry and deep
It`s there in my eyes and it`s all I can say, c`mon and look at me and read `em and weep


Read `em and weep - for all the hours we`ll be spending alone
Read `em and weep - for the dreams we`ll ignore
Running silent and deep -And all those promises we promised to keep,
they won`t be kept anymore


Read `em and weep - for the magic that our bodies had made
Read `em and weep - for the blood that we lost
Running silent and deep - and all the secrets that we somehow betrayed
For whatever the cost


Read `em and weep - for the memories still alive in the bed
Read `em and weep - for the lies we believed
Running silent and deep - and all the things that can never be said
Why don`t you look at me and read `em and weep
C`mon and look at me and read `em and weep 


It`s there in my eyes and coming straight from my heart
It`s running silent and angry and deep
It`s here in my eyes and it`s all I can say
C`mon look at me and read `em and weep
