Locomotive Lyrics

Gonna find a way to cure this lonelinessYeah I'll find a way to cure the painIf I said that you're my friendAnd our love would never endHow long before I had your trust againI opened up the doors when it was cold outsideHopin' that you'd find your own way inBut how can I protect youOr try not to neglect youWhen you won't take the love I have to giveI bought me an illusionAn I put it on the wallI let it fill my head with dreamsAnd I had to have them allBut oh the taste is never so sweetAs what you'd believe it is - well I guess it never isIt's these prejudiced illusions that pump the bloodTo the heart of the biz
You know I never thought that it could take so longYou know I never knew how to be strongYeah, I let you shape meBut it feels as though you raped me'Cause you climbed inside my worldAnd in my songsSo now I've closed the door to keep the cold outsideSeems somehow I've found the will to liveBut how can I forget you or try not to reject youWhen we both know it takes time to forgive
Sweetness is a virtue and you lost your virtue long agoYou know I'd like to hurt you but my conscience always tells me noYou could sell your body on the street to anyone whom you might meetWho'd love to try and get inside and bust your innocence open wide
'Cause my baby's got a locomotiveMy baby's gone off the trackMy baby's got a locomotiveGot ta peel the bitch off my backI know it looks like I'm insaneTake a closer look I'm not to blameNo
Gonna have some fun with my frustrationsGonna watch the big screen in my headI'd rather take a detour'Cause this road ain't gettin' clearerYour train of thought has cut me off againBetter tame that boy 'cause he's a wild oneBetter tame that boy for he's a manSweetheart don't make me laughYou's gettin' too big for your pantsAnd I's think maybe you should cut out while you canYou can use your illusion -Let it take you where it mayWe live and learn and then sometimes it's best to walk awayMe I'm just here hangin' onIt's my only place to stay at leastFor now anywayI've worked too hard for my illusionsJust to throw them all away I'm taking time quiet consolationIn passing by this love that's passed awayI know it's never easy - so why should you believe meWhen I've always got so many things to sayCalling off the dogs a simple choice is made'Cause playful hearts can sometimes be enragedYou know I tried to wake you -I mean how long could it take youTo open up your eyes and turn the page
Kindness is a treasure - and it's one towards me you've seldom shownSo I'd say it for a good measureTo all the ones like you I've knownYa know I'd like to shave your headAnd all my friends could paint it red'Cause love to me's a two way streetAn all I really want is peace
But my baby's got a locomotiveMy baby's gone off the trackMy baby's got a locomotiveGot ta peel the bitch off my backI know it looks like I'm insaneTake a closer look I'm not to blameNo
Affection is a blessingCan you find it in your sordid heartI tried to keep this thing ta-getherBut the tremor tore my pad apartYeah I know it's hard to faceWhen all we've worked for's gone to wasteBut you're such a stupid woman and I'm such a stupid manBut love like time's got its own plans
'Cause my baby's got a locomotiveMy baby's gone off the trackMy baby's got a locomotiveGot ta peel the bitch off my backI know it looks like I'm insaneTake a closer look I'm not to blameYeahIf love is blind I guess I'll buy myself a cane
Love's so strange
