If you don't mind, I'll start again alone
If you don't mind, I'll move myself along
You take up my time, fill my head with delusions
And leave me blind like I'm starin' at the sun
'Cause I can't, and I won't look away when you walk
And I'm through with being tied to nothing
I liken a razor to the way you cut the bone
Get down on my knees and lift you up onto your throne
Oh, I wasn't ready to be leaving all alone
'Cause your smile lights a fire in everyone
I finally realized that underneath the waves are rolling
I cover my eyes, and whisper in your ear
You make all the rain explode and pour the thunder on the faceless
I'm holding my own in the face of you
And I can't, and I won't look away when you walk
And I'm through with being tied to nothing
I liken a razor to the way you cut the bone
Get down on my knees and lift you up onto your throne
Oh, I wasn't ready to be leaving all alone
'Cause your smile lights a fire
I liken a razor to the way you cut the bone
Get down on my knees and lift you up onto your throne
Oh, I wasn't ready to be leaving all alone
'Cause your smile lights a fire
So, baby, if you don't mind I'll start again alone
And, baby, if you don't mind I'll move myself along
And, baby, if you don't mind I'll take it as it comes
'Cause your smile lights a fire in your eyes every time
And your smile lights a fire in everyone
