Weakness
Ran away from silence to the fury
Hope I find someone there that could cure me
I went to the world
My weakness got stronger every day
Though my chequered history's appalling
In the line of beauty I lay fallen
I found a girl
She's my weakness, gets stronger every day
Every day
I can't promise I will love you for the rest of your life
But you know I'm gonna be there for the rest of mine
We pour our hearts into a box
Seal that box with chains and locks
And then we hide it
Don't dare look inside it
In case the feeling shows
You could spend all your life with that damn box
Trying to keep it closed
Went around the world in 80 lovers
Don't think really anyone recovers
Go see the world
Let your weakness get stronger every day
Every day
I took photographs of mars
Left my footprints on the moon
I wanted the universe
Then they sent you
We pour our hearts into a box
Seal that box with chains and locks
And then we hide it
Don't dare look inside it
In case the feeling shows
You could spend all your life with that damn box
Trying to keep it closed
Ooh ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh
We pour our hearts into a box
Seal that box with chains and locks
And then we hide it
Don't dare look inside it
In case the feeling shows
We could spend all our lives with that damn box
Trying to keep it closed
Hope I find someone there that could cure me
I went to the world
My weakness got stronger every day
Though my chequered history's appalling
In the line of beauty I lay fallen
I found a girl
She's my weakness, gets stronger every day
Every day
I can't promise I will love you for the rest of your life
But you know I'm gonna be there for the rest of mine
We pour our hearts into a box
Seal that box with chains and locks
And then we hide it
Don't dare look inside it
In case the feeling shows
You could spend all your life with that damn box
Trying to keep it closed
Went around the world in 80 lovers
Don't think really anyone recovers
Go see the world
Let your weakness get stronger every day
Every day
I took photographs of mars
Left my footprints on the moon
I wanted the universe
Then they sent you
We pour our hearts into a box
Seal that box with chains and locks
And then we hide it
Don't dare look inside it
In case the feeling shows
You could spend all your life with that damn box
Trying to keep it closed
Ooh ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh
We pour our hearts into a box
Seal that box with chains and locks
And then we hide it
Don't dare look inside it
In case the feeling shows
We could spend all our lives with that damn box
Trying to keep it closed
