Manic Monday lyrics

I saw you today
She's lovely, you're such a heavenly pair
You hope and you pray
Someday she'll take you all the way there
You should know better darling
When push comes to shove
Angels don't fall in love

You stand at the gate
Hoping to gain admission
How long are you willing to wait? (and wait and wait)
She won't give permission tonight
You should know better darling
When push comes to shove

She walks in the room
And checks out the faces
We think she's all the seven wonders of the world
But there's a sadness
Hidden in the bizarre
Moonlight and madness
Living in a bell jar

She dresses in black
Cuz sorrow is a magnet
Everything comes to her like it was meant to be
But she's frustrated
Leaving things as they are
What she created
Living in a bell jar

She feels so at home

If I had the time
I would run away with you
To a perfect world
We'd suspend all that is duty or required

Late last night you cried
And I couldn't come to you
But on the other side
You and I, inseparable, went walking

If we could steal away
Like jugglers and thieves
But we could come and go
Oh, and talk of Michaelangelo, oh

If we had the time (we had the time)
We had the time

Oh, There he goes
Everybody's watching
Everybody knows
Something's going on
It certainly shows
When he's got a secret for you

It's there when he walks
It's there when he smiles
He kisses your cheek
And disappears for a while
Nothing in the world's
Gonna cramp his style
If only he could keep it from you

Oh, I don't believe that
You haven't seen by now (seen by now)
Don't look at me

I knew it'd turn out like this
I'm keeping one foot on the train
And I must be a masochist
To ever take up with you, James

It sounds familiar
That tone in your voice
You're gonna quit, James
You leave me no choice

Oh, James
Letting me down again, James

Well, it wasn't so long ago
I saw love in your eyes
And I think I should've known
But I'm feeling somewhat surprised

You think there's someone

One thing or another
Your head is filled with questions
sights and sounds
Distractions always gets you down
Turn around
Trying to remember
Where you were the day before
North and south and east and west
Where to go

When it's over, when it's done
Let it go

Frightened by the numbers
All the possibilities
Changing minds you hope to find
one more dream to remind you

Words of comfort and love
Spoken in design
Turn cruel, unkind
You have your ready treasures of sin
And it all begins
With an innocent smile

Go on, make a play for her now
While I'm standing here
I bleed so slow
You may never know

Whisper she is safe
That you sympathize
The darkest lies
When you know right now you'll be gone
At the kiss of dawn
Your conscience runs clear

Saw your head turned a bit too far to the right now
Saw the eye go a little spark when she walks by now

But if you wanna love
You wanna love another girl
I'll leave it up to you
But I won't be tested
(You feel restless now)
While you feel restless (restless)

Now I'm wondering every time that you hold me
Well, should I question anything you have told me

But if you wanna love

Told her you'd forget
It hasn't happened yet

Oh, you want to know
She said nothing
Nothing, nothing
She said nothing
You'd wanna hear right now

What goes through your head
Better left unsaid, yeah

Oh, you want to know.
She says nothing
Nothing, nothing
She says nothing
You'd got to hear right now

Nothing
Nothing, nothing
She says nothing
You got to hear right now

Yeah, nothing

I've seen the shadows fall
Colors that fade on my wall
Dressed up nowhere to go
It's all in my mind I know

But it's alright now
We're on our way

Lay me down in the moonlight
So close to you
Maybe we're just dreamers
Some dreams come true

Lips move but not a sound
When the words fall to the ground
Eyes watch but seldom see
The possibilities

But it's alright now
We're on our way

When I saw you for the first time
Eyes the color of the ocean
Something moved inside of me
Long forgotten lying broken
Now I can't turn away
Watching you as you lay sleeping
Can you hear winds of change
Is this something to believe in

I lost direction in the darkness
Couldn't stop myself from running
I could feel the sun on my back
But I was afraid to let the light in
Now I can't run any more

Threw away the things you loved
Now you want me to forgive you
Surprise surprise, I'm moving on,
Yeah, I'm moving on

What a shock it is to see
That I can walk away so easily
Isn't it funny how hard it's turned out
This time I'm moving on

Tell me, tell me
While I still have the time
Are you gonna find a love
Thats truer than mine

One, two, three abandon me

I get so restless here alone
That's why I call you on the phone
I get nervous, over-anxious, lose control
Waiting for you, baby

Lately I dream that I'm in your arms
When you're here I feel I'm safe from harm
I'd do anything that you want, babe
Anything at all
And I'm waiting for you to see
You mean the world to me

Stars and the moon wait for you in my lonely room
