Lyrics: | Some with names I sometimes call I drop a coin and watch it fall Tryin' to get connected to you A thousand hours all alone My softest pillow turns hard as stone This is the longest night on my own Lying here thinking of you Sometimes I shake my head And laugh to myself I'd like to start again with somebody else I'm like a broken toy forgotten on the shelf Baby, I could have been someone I could have been something It would have been nothing to die for you Baby, you're going to need me You'd better believe me It would have been easy to die for you A million memories flood my brain Drown my sorrow Kill my pain Whets my thirst for you again Just another night to get thru All my neighbors scream for quiet at my door Shattered glass and torn up photos on the floor Well, I couldn't stand to see your pictures anymore I could have been someone I could have been something It would have been nothing to die for you Baby, you're going to need me You'd better believe me It would have been easy to die for you These cuts are deep but you plead innocent Are you hell or are you heaven-sent You're much to cold to know how much You meant to me, yeah A billion tear drops fallen from my eyes But it's just a joke now And I'm laughing at your lies You make me hard as rock and now I realize I could have been someone I could have been something It would have been nothing to die for you Baby, you're going to need me You'd better believe me It would have been easy to die for you |
