 Meat Loaf - Read 'Em and Weep (PCM Stereo)

Lyrics

I've been trying for hours just to think of what exactly to say

I thought I'd leave you with a letter or a fiery speech

Like when an actor makes an exit at the end of a play


And I've been dying for hours trying to fill up all the holes with some sense

I'd like to know why you gave up and you threw it away

I'd like to give you all the reasons and what everything meant


Well, I could tell you "goodbye" or maybe "see you around"

With just a touch of a sarcastic "thanks"

We started out with a bang and at the top of the world

Now the guns are exhausted and the bullets are blanks

And everything's blank


If I could only find the words then I would write it all down

If I could only find a voice I would speak

Oh, it's there in my eyes, oh, can't you see me tonight

Come on and look at me and read 'em and weep


If I could only find the words then I would write it all down

If I could only find a voice I would speak

Oh, it's there in my eyes, oh, can't you see me tonight

Come on and look at me and read 'em and weep


I've been whispering softly trying to build a cry up into a scream

We let the past slip away and put the future on hold

Now the present is nothing but a hollowed-out dream

And I've been dreaming forever, hoping something would eventually come

I saw your eyes in the dark, I felt your kiss on my lips

I traced your body in the air until the bodies were numb


Well, I could tell you "goodbye" or maybe "see you around"

With just a touch of a sarcastic "thanks"

But now the rooms are all empty, the candles are dark

The guns are exhausted and the bullets are blanks

And everything's fine


If I could only find the words then I would write it all down

If I could only find a voice I would speak

Oh, it's there in my eyes, oh, can't you see me tonight

Come on and look at me and read 'em and weep


Oh, it's there in my eyes and coming straight from my heart

It's running silent and angry and deep

Oh, it's there in my eyes and it's all I can say

Come on and look at me and read 'em and weep


(Read 'em and weep) For all the hours we'll be spending alone

(Read 'em and weep) For the dreams we'll ignore

(Running silent and deep) And all those promises we promised to keep

They won't be kept anymore


(Read 'em and weep) For the magic that our bodies had made

(Read 'em and weep) For the blood that we've lost

(Running silent and deep) And all those secrets that we somehow betrayed

For whatever the cost

(Read 'em and weep) For the memories still alive in the bed

(Read 'em and weep) For the lies we believed

(Running silent and deep) And all the things that will have never been said

Why don't you look at me and read 'em and weep

Come on and look at me and read 'em


It's there in my eyes and coming straight from my heart

It's running silent and angry and deep

It's there in my eyes, it's all I can say

Come on and look at me and read 'em and weep

Bon Jovi - In These Arms

Bon Jovi - In These Arms Lyrics You want commitment, and take a look into these eyes. They burn with fire, Yeah, until the end of time. And I would do anything, I'd beg, I'd steal, I'd die to have you in theses arms tonight. Baby I want you like the roses want the rain, You know I need you like a poet needs the pain. And I would give anything. My blood, my love, my life. If you were in these arms tonight. I'd hold you, I'd need you, I'd get down on my knees for you. And make everything alright, If you were in these arms. I'd love you, I'd please you, I'd tell you that I'd never leave you. And love you till the end of time, if you were in these arms tonight. Oh, yeah. We stare at the sun, and we made a promise. A promise this world would never blind us. And these were our words. Our words were our songs. Our songs are our prayers. These prayers keep me strong, and I still believe. If you were in these arms. I'd hold you, I'd need you, I...
