For Crying Out Loud

I took 15 years

To break your spell

I loved you then

I love you still

I wake up cold

I wake up wet

My body weak

My mind is spent

I fill my days

I pay my rent

And I have no need

Of electric light

Because I dream the same

dream every night

I call my man

I know it's late

Could you fix me something

to put me straight?

Because I need your love

I need it now

God speed your love

For crying out loud

You took all I have

There is no more

Mother nature lied

There is no cure

So I take my pill

I close my eyes

And I wait for sleep

I wait all night

But I see your face

I hear your voice

So I call your number

I have no choice

Because I need your love

I need it now

God speed your love

For crying out loud

I took 15 years

To break your spell

I loved you then

I guess I failed

I wake up cold

I wake up wet

My body weak

My mind is spent

I fill my days

I pay my rent

And I have no need

And I have no one

Because I need your love

I need it now

God speed your love

God speed your love to me

For crying out loud
