El Dorado

The coloring of the world around
Is better seen when the lights are down
Hey-hey
And there's a haze in the atmosphere
But he's a fine navigator here
Hey-hey
Hey-hey, mm

And she's aware, wouldn't dare have him turn away
But, honey, now, do allow me the chance to say, mm-hm, mm

That I'm only getting half of you
And that's a lonely place to be
He said, "I'm sorry, that'll have to do
'Cause it's the only way for me to
Turn the water into wine for them to swallow
And burn hotter than the fires of El Dorado"

And so it is that his hunger sways
Between the muse and the love he makes
Hey-hey
And though it's warm in the heart of this
To his home, he's an arsonist
Hey-hey

And I don't need you to bleed for me to stay
But, honey, now, do allow me the chance to say, mm-mm, mm-mm

That I'm only getting half of you
And that's a lonely place to be
He said, "I'm sorry, that'll have to do
'Cause it's the only way for me to
Turn the water into wine for them to swallow
And burn hotter than the fires of El Dorado"

The silver lining's hiding deeper down
But speak your mind, I'm only here for now

She said, "I'm only getting half of you
And that's a lonely place to be"
He said, "I'm sorry, that'll have to do
'Cause it's the only way for me to
Turn the water into wine for them to swallow
And burn hotter than the fires of El Dorado"
Ooh, ooh

(Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh)
