Oh, my child  
You’ll never know  
Just what you mean to me  
Oh, my child  
You got so much  
You’re gonna take away my energy

With all your jive talkin’

Hollow doll, you lied again  
Don’t come here to pray so full of lie  
Those fantasies invade like a cancer forms inside  
Regarding the pain I’m counting again  
Recover from this doll who you burning for

This is the healing way, the light is yours  
I can’t forget and I can’t escape  
It’s kind of warm, kind of pain, I can’t explain  
I came here to feel this way  
My feelings are dead  
Nothing here is quite the same

Pleasure and pain (it’s all the same)  
You’ve done it once, you could do it again (it’s all the same)  
Whatever you done, don’t try to explain (it’s all the same)  
It’s a fine, fine line between pleasure and pain (it’s all the same)  
Pleasure and pain

Love hurts, love scars  
Love wounds, and mars  
Any heart not tough  
Or strong enough

To take a lot of pain  
Take a lot of pain  
Love is like a cloud  
Holds a lot of rain

Don’t tell me not to live, just sit and putter  
Life’s candy and the sun’s a ball of butter  
Don’t bring around a cloud to rain on my parade

Here comes the rain again  
Falling on my head like a memory  
Falling on my head like a new emotion  
I want to walk in the open wind  
I want to talk like lovers do  
Want to dive into your ocean  
Is it raining with you?

It’s growing cold  
I’m growing old  
Is this the only way to see a fire?  
It’s raining

Grow old along with me  
The best is yet to be  
When our time has come  
We will be as one

God bless our love  
God bless our love

Time has come today  
Young hearts can go their way  
Can’t put it off another day

Disappear into the clear  
And visions understood  
Wrestle now and shout the vow  
The illusion is the pain  
The illusion is the pain

Time has got nothing to do with it  
Time has got nothing to do with it  
Time

Sometimes I can’t help the feeling that I’m  
Living a life of illusion  
And oh, why can’t we let it be  
And see through the hole in this wall of confusion  
I just can’t help the feeling I’m  
Living a life of illusion

Pow! Right between the eyes  
Oh, how nature loves her little surprises  
Wow! It all seems so logical now  
It’s just one of her better disguises

</div>

Open the door and look inside  
It’s as you left it yet not quite right  
The fading scent says something’s wrong  
Someone has been here, someone has gone

Nature trails, where she leads  
Like a pet at her feet  
Don’t be said, you’ll be set free tomorrow  
Nature trails, where she leads  
Come onm give up, you’re on your knees  
One mistake and you’ll be there forever

So messed up, I want you here  
In my room, I want you here  
Now we’re gonna be face to face  
And I’ll lay right down in my favorite place

And now I wanna be your dog  
And now I wanna be your dog  
And now I wanna be your dog

Silver bells hangin’ on a string

My ding a ling, my ding a ling
