[Verse 1]
EYou are, you are my liAmoness
and I am truly blessEed
to be your willing plAmaything
we laEugh like languid caAmnibal
but it's the lions rEoar
that sends my blood rAmacing
it's not riEght what you've done to your heart
it was perAmfectly fine from the start
I can't gEet to you
I can't get to you if you won't Amlet me
it's not riEght what you've done to your heart
it was peAmrfectly fine from the start
I can't gEet to you
I can't get to you anAmymore
[Chorus]
tFhere was a lCine that was dGrawn in the sAmand
it was for your own protection
Fto keep you from thCings you would nGever undersAmtand
to keep you from asking questions
Fhow on eaCrth will you sGleep at niAmght
knowing what you know now
you wanna blow my mFind?
aah Ethis is the right time
[Verse 2]
I leaErned
I learned so much from yAmou
so waters cannot dEo
but long for your instAmruction
I fouEnd
your foot upon my nAmeck
my mistress once a wEreck
for her to reconAmstruct
it's not riEght what you've done to your heart
it was peAmrfectly fine from the start
I can't gEet to you
I can't get to you anAmymore
[Chorus]
tFhere was a lCine that was dGrawn in the sAmand
it was for your own protection
Fto keep you from thCings you would nGever undersAmtand
to keep you from asking questions
Fhow on eaCrth will you sGleep at niAmght
knowing what you know now
you wanna blow my mFind?
aah Ethis is the right time
[Verse 3]
it's your pEain of your lovers affection
do you caAmrry your lovers cross?
from one thrEough eleven and on to fourteen
no there woAmn't be a fifteenth station
do you lEong for your lovers affection?
are you goAmnna accept your loss?
you see thEere was a line that was stepped overwords
and nAmever should have been crossed
[Chorus]
tFhere was a lCine that was dGrawn in the sAmand
it was for your own protection
Fto keep you from thCings you would nGever undersAmtand
to keep you from asking questions
Fhow on eaCrth will you sGleep at niAmght
knowing what you know now
you wanna blow my mFind?
aah Ethis is the right time

[Verse 1]

E Am

You are, you are my lioness

and I am truly blessed

to be your willing plaything

E Am

we laugh like languid canibal

but it's the lions roar

that sends my blood racing

it's not right what you've done to your heart

it was perfectly fine from the start

I can't get to you

I can't get to you if you won't let me

it's not right what you've done to your heart

it was perfectly fine from the start

I can't get to you

I can't get to you anymore

[Chorus]

F C G Am

there was a line that was drawn in the sand

it was for your own protection

F C G Am

to keep you from things you would never understand

to keep you from asking questions

F C G Am

how on earth will you sleep at night

knowing what you know now

you wanna blow my mind?

aah this is the right time

[Verse 2]

I learned

I learned so much from you

so waters cannot do

but long for your instruction

I found

your foot upon my neck

my mistress once a wreck

for her to reconstruct

it's not right what you've done to your heart

it was perfectly fine from the start

I can't get to you

I can't get to you anymore

[Chorus]

F C G Am

there was a line that was drawn in the sand

it was for your own protection

F C G Am

to keep you from things you would never understand

to keep you from asking questions

F C G Am

how on earth will you sleep at night

knowing what you know now

you wanna blow my mind?

aah this is the right time

[Verse 3]

it's your pain of your lovers affection

do you carry your lovers cross?

from one through eleven and on to fourteen

no there won't be a fifteenth station

do you long for your lovers affection?

are you gonna accept your loss?

you see there was a line that was stepped overwords

and never should have been crossed

[Chorus]

F C G Am

there was a line that was drawn in the sand

it was for your own protection

F C G Am

to keep you from things you would never understand

to keep you from asking questions

F C G Am

how on earth will you sleep at night

knowing what you know now

you wanna blow my mind?

aah this is the right time
