44 Stories lyrics

Baptize her with bitter tears till she knows your pain is real.

Next time you see her on her knees, don`t try to make a deal.

Don`t stare her into silence, with frozen point of view.

`Cause she`s got 44 stories: she wants to tell them all to you.



Welcome her to all your fears and trust that she will cope.

Give her one day of satisfaction for a thousand years of hope.

Don`t turn to dry your eyes, and lose your chance to look.

`Cause she`s got 44 stories: she wants to write them in a book.



Instrumental break.



Wait until your mem`ry clears, then welcome her to Rome.

The desert of your misspent years that led you to her home.

Don`t hold her up to sunlight, she`ll melt into the blue.

Don`t make her shout through static if you want hear the truth,

`Cause she`s got 44 stories;

She`s got 44 stories;

She`s got 44 stories: she wants to tell them all to you.
