Bacon Brothers - City Of Fear lyrics

Written by kevin bacon, michael bacon You scared me when i met you The way you sparkled in the dark I drove around for hours But you never showed your heart You took me in your arms That smelled of oranges and sage You tempted me with glory Until i was your slave Then you took me to the party You said you loved to watch me dance But you took home the latest thing And there was no second chance Chorus Now your mountain's on fire your river's run dry I got a burning desire to kiss an angel good bye Climbing out of your smokescreen the weather looks clear Leave an angel below me in the city of fear You scare me when i see you Because i remember times we had How you shook me like a baby Who had swallowed something bad You scare me because i need you Like a roof over my head Like a baby needs new shoes Mama's milk and daddy's bread But you distrust my honesty And you distrust my car And you don't like the way i look When i'm playing my guitar Chorus Sometimes i'm your lover your white knight your shining star Sometimes i'm a dinosaur and i'm sinking in your tar Chorus
