If I fall down on my knees
   And my tear-stained cheeks say please
   Well yeah
   Yeah, yeah, yeah
  
   And if you take me
   From this world
   Of lies and pain and hurt
   Well yeah
   Yeah, yeah, yeah
  
   From your mouth you breathe
   The breath of Summer's kiss
   The magic words of calm
   Come pouring from your lips
  
   Hey babe come here quick
   My head is pounding
   My mind is sick
   Yeah
  
   Everybody I know said you must be joking
   When they saw me with you
   The laughed until they choked
  
   And I know when it gets too much
   I'll lean on you
   My velvet crutch
   Oh yeah
  
   Hey you pretty thief
   You stole my fear
   And gave me peace of mind
   Yeah
