Run That By Me lyrics

you smile to sweeten what you`re saying
but you wound with your words so fine
we all get the lives that we deserve
what
you`re cruel to my kind
do you think that I`ve got no feelings
left to hurt inside
your aim is high and you don`t miss much
but my eyes are open wide
if I`m gonna have to push the boat out
to meet that tidal wave
I`m gonna need more than a moment
to find a face that`s brave
and if I`m looking in the desert
to find the blazing flowers
I`m gonna need more than a minute
more like twenty four hours
run that by me one more time
I gotta have a chance to recover
run that by me one more time
I gotta have a chance
run that by me one more time
before you blow my mind and my cover
run that by me one more time
cos I`m strong enough
so you saw this coming did you
you give pride while I take the fall
you never thought to warn me did you
just sit back and watch it all you straightjacket my dreams
and chainsaw my intentions
I hate to shatter your illusions
but I`m strong enough to carry on
if I`m gonna have to push the boat out
to meet that tidal wave
I`m gonna need more than a moment
to find a face that`s brave
and if I`m looking in the desert
to find the blazing flowers
I`m gonna need more than a minute
more like twenty four hours
run that by me one more time
I gotta have a chance to recover
run that by me one more time
I gotta have a chance
run that by me one more time
before you blow my mind and my cover
run that by me one more time
cos I`m strong enough
I get crushed while you never mind
I get crushed while you never mind
and this is all the well I have
excuse
