Honey stay a little while,
Gimme just a little smile to have when the nights draw in,
Because I've felt lost since you've been mine,
Feeling things inside my mind I don't want to feel again.
But still I need your warmth to see me through,
Your loving heart brings mine to you
But oh how that makes us bleed.
You see I want you now
See I want you now
See I want you all whole and to myself.
Be my candle in the dark, the flicker lit from tiny sparks of chance that brought you to me.
And we could fan this flame to light our way and it could burn out hearts away and I'd still give what was left of me.
And I don't want to need
Cos I want you now
See I want you now
You see I want you all whole and to myself.
So tell me where does wisdom lie - in naked air or in the fire?
Oh let me temper these two.
Because we fear to lose what's best
And you, you fear the darkness too,
And I don't want to live this way
You see I want you now
You see I want you now
You see I want you all whole and to myself.

I tried to look but my eyes turned down
I tried to run but I couldn't stand
And I tried to love but I just got broken
It seems my heart wasn't made for times like this
And I keep looking to find some melodies from all these sounds
And at the back of my mind I found these questions turning round...
Why don't more people sing the blues?
Why don't they shout it from the rooftops and tell it true?
Why don't they tear out their voices as they exclaim that they're just not gonna take it anymore?
Maybe their voices were taken away
Maybe they couldn't find the air to speak the words to say it
Maybe it's not a case of saying something loud and clear but whispering the words into someone's ear.
And I keep looking to find some melodies from all these sounds
And at the back of my mind I found these questions turning round...
Why don't more people sing the blues?
Why don't they shout it from the rooftops and tell it true?
Why don't they tear out their voices as they exclaim that they're just not gonna take it anymore?
So I looked for friends but I just found lovers
And I looked at women but I just saw mothers
And my head is filled with a billion voices screaming:
Why can't we give women the respect they need?
And I keep looking to find some melodies from all these sounds
And at the back of my mind I found this question turning round...
Why don't more people sing the blues?
Why don't they shout it from the rooftops and tell it true?
Why don't they tear out their voices as they exclaim that they're just not gonna take it anymore?
Not gonna take it anymore
Not gonna take it anymore
No they're not gonna take it anymore
No not gonna take it anymore.

In darkness I see the dimming of the light,
My heart keeps fighting to bring it through to bright,
These aching lungs must burst out full with air,
And wrench out poison and wrench out dispair.
We all must see some of the pain this life can bring
But energy can delight my soul and keep me burning free, oh free
Burning free.
I see the world through my window pane,
My eyes, my ears, my universe my chains,
But I know the links that we all must find,
To share life, share love, share your soul and your mind.
We all must see some of the pain this life can bring
But energy can delight my soul and keep me burning free, oh free
Keep me burning free.
