 Because everything  I've ever done I've done  because I love y--ou,
 Silly you should ask.
 I'm afraid that I'll spend  the better part of next year scared  that I might
 need y--ou,
 Bring me down and I'll feel  again.
 Everything  I've ever done I've done  because I love y--ou,
 Sideways...  sideways.
 Repeat Riff with second verse
 Lost my train of thought around Chicago,
 Found a little solace where you lay.
 Never made collages as a young child,
 Not that much to see so much to say.
 Now even in this silence there's a thunder,
 And rain that steals the breath beneath this cage.
 And at least I've got your memory to sooth me,
 This bitter poison ripening with age.
 Lost my patience well before west fourth street,
 Found a copper coin said "Seize the Day!"
 And I let the angry audience surround me,
 Hiding as I screamed "Give or the play!" (not sure about this line)
 Now even in this thunder there's a silence,
 A shred of comfort standing at my door.
 And at least I've got the sense to reconstruct you,
 And leave me twice as lucid as before.
And  you left  your mark,  you left  your face  in the corner of  my mind three
 times.
You  left  your mark,  you left  your self.
 At least I've got the sense to sense whats coming,
 and realize that good things never come to those who wait too long...
 Thats about it... Thanks!!

Repeat Riff with second verse

Lost my train of thought around Chicago,
Found a little solace where you lay.
Never made collages as a young child,
Not that much to see so much to say.

Now even in this silence there's a thunder,
And rain that steals the breath beneath this cage.
And at least I've got your memory to sooth me,
This bitter poison ripening with age.

Lost my patience well before west fourth street,
Found a copper coin said "Seize the Day!"
And I let the angry audience surround me,
Hiding as I screamed "Give or the play!" (not sure about this line)

Now even in this thunder there's a silence,
A shred of comfort standing at my door.
And at least I've got the sense to reconstruct you,
And leave me twice as lucid as before.

[Em]And you l[Am]eft your mark[Em], you l[Am]eft your f[C]ace in the [G]corner [D]of my mind three
t[Em]imes.
[Em]You l[Am]eft your mark[Em], you l[Am]eft your s[C]elf.

At least I've got the sense to sense whats coming,
and realize that good things never come to those who wait too long...

Thats about it...   Thanks!!
