I'm not the kind of man
Who lets a woman tell me
Just what I can and cannot do.

She came prepared for battle
And all I had to say was
“I'd like to spend some time with you.”

Bridge:
Comin' on shy but I don't know why
Sure knows what to do
Bitch gonna stab you in the back
While she makes love to you

Chorus:
All's Fair in Love and War
So what are we fighting for
All's Fair in Love and War

No one to blame but yourself
There's no more lies left to tell
You know I've heard that song before

Now you're too scared to face me
Afraid of what you may see
How all is fair in love and war.

Bridge
Chorus
Solo

And when the battle's over
You'll find another love
I'll be another casualty.

Bridge
Chorus
(Repeat)

. . .


So you feel a little lonely girl
Well you know you're used to that one
Now the taste of sweet success
Is on your lips, you always want some

Picture perfect innocence
Behind a guard that she can't drop
She's been around the world
Now she's back on the top

Chorus:
She wants everything put in her lap
Yeah she likes it on top
She's in the right place

Though all along you knew it was wrong
The taste of blood got to ya

Now everyone who's on your list
You know they gotta do something for ya

Not a care at her expense
She'll pay the piper when he stops
She's been around the world
Now she's back on the top

Chorus

She cries herself to sleep at night
It's not all it's cracked up to be
She Can't See, Yeah

She's a little lonely girl
Gets her kicks on top of the world

Solo

Picture Perfect Innocence
She'll pay the piper when he stops
She's been around the world
Now she's back on the top

Chorus

. . .


Come with me my sweet Diana
All your life you were upon a pedestal

She's got a lot of questions on her mind
It seems like everyone is so unkind, why, why, why
She always runs away my sweet Diana
She'll find escape in the Garden of Eden

She's got a lot of questions on her mind
It seems like everyone is so unkind, why, why, why
Come with me my sweet Diana
Come with me my sweet Diana


It seems like everyone is so unkind, why, why, why
Come with me my sweet Diana
Come with me my sweet Diana

Come with me my sweet Diana (Take my hand by me, yeah)
I'll be your love forevermore
Come with me my sweet Diana

. . .


(Whoa!)
It's the same old aggrevation
I just can't deal with complication

You're just too hard to please
Chorus:
Down on the pain that you put me through
Down on the love that I thought so true
Oh, it's an impossible situation

Then left me here to bleed
Chorus
Down, down, down on you


Ow!
You slipped right through my fingertips


Down, down, down, down on you
Down, down, down, down on you

. . .


I watched you bathing in the moonlight
I heard you crying in the wind
Oh, every day is just another symphony
Of angels singing praises in your name
Look up, can't you hear them calling

It wasn't very long ago
That you and I believed in the same things
And now it seems, you've put our love behind you
And turned away before you understood
You can run, but you can't hide

Chorus:
Can't you see I'm falling down
Thanks to things I never knew
Don't you know I'm tryin' hard
To take this love from you

Oh, the skies are falling
And the seas are drying
Oh, oh, can it be?
The world stopped turning on me

Well, I see you still but that's just fantasy
I hear you call to someone else
Oh, gazing at a distant cold reflection
And crystal lakes of tears I cried for you
Trying to keep this hope alive

Chorus
Solo
Chorus
(Repeat)


. . .


As I lie awake
All the memories of my life
Seem to come and fade
Wakes me in the dead of night
Am I slipping away?
Is my memory leaving me?
When it's cold and dark,
Ghost of winter comes to me

Look at me
I'm eternal thought
It's a shame but we must part
It's just a dream
It's just a dream

Dreams that seem so real
Granny tells me it's o.k.
Won't you cry to sleep
You'll wake up to a brand new day

Tears to wake the dead
Tell them it's not all in vain
Since the dawn of man
Think how many felt the rain

It's far from what you know
But now I have to go
It's just a dream
It's just a dream

In the world, darkness follows me
Hiding out, in places I can't fee
I'll tell you one thing
I'll never change my ways
Fly high

Solo

I can't distinguish reality from dreams
Ghost of winter, won't you hear my silent scream?

Ghost of winter, won't you hear my silent scream?
Ghost of winter, return me to my dream

Repeat

You've showed me one thing
I've never, ever seen
So take me back there
I've got to have my dream

Oh, Ghost of Winter
Hear my silent scream
Fly high



. . .


(Hey you, over here)


You can even steal my car
I bet you couldn't get far
And I could show you to my mother
Mama this girl's my lover

Make me happy never sad
Too bad
Why, you could play my trusty organ
Some bitches say I ignore them

But you can bring me to your bed (To your bed)
Hey girl I mean what I say I said (I said)
My eyes are tired
It dosen't matter to me


You couldn't even steal my car (My car)
I said you wouldn't get far
Now I won't show you to my mother
Mama this girl's my lover

Make me happy never sad


. . .


You can't ride upon the wings
Of all your broken dreams
Someday you've got to give it up

In between the lines you'll see
I'm giving you a sign
Your attitude is just too tough

You don't know what I want all night
Why don't you make your dreams come true
I'll show you how
Here's what you do

Chorus:
Show a little love
Give a little love
All I want from you is one thing
Show your love to me

Look up to the skies
I see desire in your eyes
But you can't keep it in your heart
Let's take the night and
Then we'll sleep by candle light
While flames of love are burning
In the dark.

You tell me you love me, oh no
Now I can't tell the lies from truth
So prove me wrong
Here's what you can do

Chorus
Solo
Chorus
(Repeat)



. . .


You say your happy, with your ways
So here's a lesson, to be learned

Will you ever realize
Oh...Oh
Another step in, the wrong direction
In your wasted dreams, nothings what it seems

Will you ever realize
It's all gonna come to an end
You think you're happy, maybe just too high
Tomorrow's history, anyway do you care

Will you ever realize
Oh ... Oh
Will you ever open your eyes
It's all gonna come to an end



. . .


As I looked into the stormy night
The fire weapon started burning

I've had your sweet lips on my brain
I read your Letters In The Rain

I look into the flames for hope
Then in the winter turns to snow
Cause when the moonlight hit the water
Then I found the truth in writing
In the rain
Now you come back with this story
Do you expect me to believe you
Not this time
Cause when the moonlight hit the water
Then I found the truth in writing
In the rain In the rain In the rain
