I made the mistake of my life,

When I left you crying on the bed that night.

I figured on the second shot,

Time is a pistol and the bullets fly.

Bridge:

I’d give anything, to bring you back again,

Bring you back to me.

Chorus:

One, one is the number of the sun,

Hardcore, when it doesn’t shine no more.

Two, two is the pain we’re going through,

Still can’t believe it could be true.

Three, three are ya coming back to me?

We’ll just have to wait and see.

For now stranded in the cage of steel, finding out if love is real.

2nd Verse:

Your pictures in the magazines,

Always looked so serious and so serene.

But I remember you when you’d smile,

you’d light up everyone for half a mile.

Bridge:

I’d give anything, to hold you close again,

hold you close to me.

Chorus:

One, one is the number of the sun,

Hardcore, when it doesn’t shine no more.

Two, two is the pain we’re going through,

Still can’t believe it could be true.

Three, three are ya coming back to me?

We’ll just have to wait and see.

For now stranded in the cage of steel, finding out if love is real.

Stranded in the cage of steel, finding out if love is real.

Fill:

Everyone loves someone the most,

Everyone loves someone the most,

Everyone loves someone the most,

Everyone loves someone the most.

Third Verse:

They told me when they found you there,

You weren’t wearing nothing but your underwear.

Walking out through the pouring rain,

Your eyes were blank you didn’t know your name.

Bridge:

I’d give anything, to bring you home again,

Bring you home, to me.

Chorus:

One, one is the number of the sun,

Hardcore, when it doesn’t shine no more.

Two, two is the pain we’re going through,

Still can’t believe it could be true.

Three, three are ya coming back to me?

We’ll just have to wait and see.

For now stranded in the cage of steel, finding out if love is real.

Stranded in the cage of steel, finding out if love is real.

Final Fill:

Everyone loves someone the most,

Everyone loves someone the most,

Everyone loves someone the most,

Everyone loves someone the most.

I feel the beauty that you bring, and it ... it stirs my heart, it makes me sing.
I sing a song that’s always been, always been, na na na na na na na na na na always been,


Robert was a universe, complete and incomplete.
He wore Saturn’s rings and cosmic things, vibrant as the stream.
Photographs formed in his mind before the camera clicked.
He gave life to those around him, even though he got so sick.

I hear the story that you tell, and it ... it gives me strength, it makes me well.
It lets me know we’ve always been, always been. na na na na na na na na na na always been,
na na na na na na na na na na always been na na na beeeen beeeeeeeeeeen beeeeeeeeeen

Oh baby, let go of your pain. Come on, give it all to me. (x2)

Leaning off the window ledge she sways and shuts her eyes,
dreaming of the last words Robert said before he died.
Tell our story Patti, you’re the only one who can.
She steps out into his emptiness by picking up the pen.

Ours is a love that will not break, it just ... goes out like ripples on a lake.
What’s set in motion has no end, what has no end has always been. Always been. na na na na na na na
na na na always been na na na na na na na na na na always been na na beeeeen na na beeeeeeen beeeeeeeen

Oh baby, let go of your pain. Come on, give it all to me. (x8)
