What You Need From Me - Jump the Ship

I just had to hear your voice You've always been my rock The one that puts me back together On my way around the block Yeah, I'm a late night phone call An ear that you can bend The sister you never had Your lover and your closest friend And it breaks my heart I'll never be what you need from me Oh I've tried (I've tried) and failed I've prayed (I've prayed) like hell To change (to change) but I can't change (I can't change) I'll let you down 'cause I'm still the same And I can't be (no I can't be) what you need from me You need a trophy on your arm So you don't look so lonely Someone to get you through the night Someone to start your morning coffee You need a man that you can count on Someone who'll finish what he started Not a restless soul who comes and goes And leaves you broken-hearted And it breaks my heart I'll never be what you need from me Oh I've tried (I've tried) and failed I've prayed (I've prayed) like hell To change (to change) but I can't change (no, I can't change) I'll let you down 'cause I'm still the same And I can't be (no I can't be) what you need from me I've tried, I've failed I've prayed like hell But I can't be (no I can't be) what you need from me What you need from me What you need from me

So there you are, Again you're circling all around, If you could only touch me now, Strangers from the past, Dont hesitate, Now we're standing face to face, If heaven is the only place, Would you take my hand? Just tell me what do you want from me, This is love in the first degree, Tell me why, everytime I feel your eyes all over me. Tell me what do you want from me, Are you mad enough to see, That its hard to cross the line, Come on now, set me free. What do you want from me. Get closer now, Softly whisper in my ear, Please take me away from here, Away from all my tears. Its not too late, Now we're standing face to face, And heaven is the only place, Will you understand? Just tell me what do you want from me, This is love in the first degree, Tell me why everytime I feel your eyes all over me. Tell me what do you want from me, Are you mad enough to see, That its hard to cross the line, Come on now, set me free. And I know, If you give me this feeling, I'll be there to hold you tight. Cauz I'd show, your love is a hero, We will run, run out of sight. What you want? What do you want from me, This is love in the first degree, Tell me why everytime I feel your eyes all over me

Come sail your ships around me And burn your bridges down We make a little history, baby Every time you come around Come loose your dogs upon me And let your hair hang down You are a little mystery to me Every time you come around We talk about it all night long We define our moral ground But when I crawl into your arms Everything comes tumbling down Come sail your ships around me And burn your bridges down We make a little history, baby Every time you come around Your face has fallen sad now For you know the time is nigh When I must remove your wings And you, you must try to fly Come sail your ships around me And burn your bridges down We make a little history, baby Every time you come around Come loose your dogs upon me And let your hair hang down You are a little mystery to me Every time you come around
