Release me from this struggle to be free Won't you take my hand Lead me to the promised land of your love Step outside of this superficial life Put your pretty lips on mine Kiss me one more time and I'm gone Who really cares? Who really knows? About these agents of despair And their thrown together prose Release me from this struggle to be free I'll break my plans To be in the gentle hands of your love When you're by my side in these superficial times Put your little hand in mine Kiss me one more time and I'm gone Who really cares? Who really knows? About these agents of despair And their thrown together prose Let them have his head He's harmless you know Watch him let you down And leave you hanging on a rope Hanging on a rope... hanging on a rope I won't be fooled by your devious ways Your ingenuine fears and your ingenuine pain I look a wreck but somehow you look fine You come to me And ask me to ease our troubled mind I won't be fooled again..... I won't be fooled by your devious ways I look a wreck but somehow you look fine.....
