Flesh and Bone

Your mind is your own
You don't have to listen to me
But, baby, I know you're wasting your life

No learning at school
Nobody is teaching you this
No money on earth replaces a kiss

I know, sometimes, it's hard to be yourself
No one is gonna take your side
If your heart is always somewhere else
You can't do this alone

You gotta love somebody
Now you really know
You gotta hold their body
With your flesh and bones, flesh and bones

Time in our lives
The things we're gonna feel
Are badly described by the things that we see

I know you can read
I know that the pictures look real
A face with a name, it's not really me

I know, sometimes, it's hard to be yourself
No one is gonna see your soul
If you tell them that you're someone else
You can't do this alone

You gotta love somebody
Now you really know
You gotta hold their body
With your flesh and bones, flesh and bones

You gotta love somebody
Now you really know
You gotta hold their body
With your flesh and bones, flesh and bones

I know, sometimes, it's hard to be yourself
But nothing is gonna blow your mind
Like the truth that only you can tell
You can't do this alone

You gotta love somebody
Now you really know
You gotta hold their body
With your flesh and bones, flesh and bones

You gotta love somebody
Now you really know
You gotta hold their body
With your flesh and bones, flesh and bones
