I love you like a warden loves a prisoner
and I never understood which side of the bars I'm on.
You're number one at making me feel two
and yours is the only shoulder I can cry upon.
You're the best at putting pressure on my chest
when you confess you think this pain is good for you.
Your love is true, but not for anyone but you
for all the rest it's just a mask and a costume.
Could you be the one,
Blocking out the sun
Promising forever
at least until you're done?
I'd cry without your love, babe
but laughing's too much fun.
You're the world to me; to you I'm the Exxon Valdes
and all I ever do is dirty up your shores.
Not anymore. From now on it goes like this.
In this future, you're history.
Is there anything I missed?
Could you be the one,
Blocking out the sun
Promising forever
at least until you're done?
I'd die without your love, babe
but living's too much fun.
Could you be the one?
Could you be the one,
Blocking out the sun
Promising forever
at least until you're done?
Could you be the one
blocking out the sun
who puts me in a corner
when there's room for everyone?
Could you be the one,
Blocking out the sun
Promising forever
at least until you're done
Could you be the one?
