This story line inside my head
We spun gold to straw instead
Cut your hand on a spinning wheel
This shield is getting heavy
And I work too much
And I try too hard
To lose....WHOA, TO LOSE
Play it safe.....you say
I can’t get through this alone
This cross we carry on our backs
It’s just long enough....a balancing act
Chorus:
Do you think I’d try
To leave.... without you by my side?
No stone walls too steep
To keep...this, Baby, locked inside??
Call me crazy but
This life is just too much for me
Put your white glove in my hand
I’m trying to be your man
Is this all that I can take?
To mend these rules you break? And
I’ll be the floodgate that’ll set you free
And I work too much
And I try too hard
To lose....TO LOSE
Chorus
No, no, no....
Now I’m gonna set you free...
