Rose of Lima
What do you do with the love
That every man seems to end up givin you?
I put a dollar in that offering plate
Oh a few too many times
Like so many before me
I thought I had found my salvation
Once I could see
But now I'm blind
What do you do with the songs
Men like me wind up singin' you
Community Muse
Does that make you feel liked?
Just remember this melody
Echoed right out of a heart that's beating
My ribs are all bruised
From squeezin' this guitar so tight
If no's the most powerful word that you've got
Then just say it
But until you do I'll keep beatin' against the wind
I'd travel tonight
But some other guy
Is safe and convenient
As for me, we both know
I'm your favorite sin
Anyone else
Would be kicked to the curb
But I'll lay down in the gutter
And pray for your word
I ran out of pride
I'll just wait my turn
And when you deign to let me see you
You'll feel how I burn
You tell me I'm trouble
Well, girl, I'm a stone wheel in motion
Not easily started
And even less easily slowed
You spun me up real good
In a back booth at Transmission
Your trouble began
With a kiss that you stole
If no's the most powerful thing you can say
Please just say it
Cause until you do I'll keep riding through the night
A few hours with you
Sixteen on the road
At risk of arrest
Darlin', you're in me like a knife
That every man seems to end up givin you?
I put a dollar in that offering plate
Oh a few too many times
Like so many before me
I thought I had found my salvation
Once I could see
But now I'm blind
What do you do with the songs
Men like me wind up singin' you
Community Muse
Does that make you feel liked?
Just remember this melody
Echoed right out of a heart that's beating
My ribs are all bruised
From squeezin' this guitar so tight
If no's the most powerful word that you've got
Then just say it
But until you do I'll keep beatin' against the wind
I'd travel tonight
But some other guy
Is safe and convenient
As for me, we both know
I'm your favorite sin
Anyone else
Would be kicked to the curb
But I'll lay down in the gutter
And pray for your word
I ran out of pride
I'll just wait my turn
And when you deign to let me see you
You'll feel how I burn
You tell me I'm trouble
Well, girl, I'm a stone wheel in motion
Not easily started
And even less easily slowed
You spun me up real good
In a back booth at Transmission
Your trouble began
With a kiss that you stole
If no's the most powerful thing you can say
Please just say it
Cause until you do I'll keep riding through the night
A few hours with you
Sixteen on the road
At risk of arrest
Darlin', you're in me like a knife
