The days are dark, and the night is blue

Waiting on a word, a world from you

3am and what remains

No cars around, the stoplights change

She's a gentle soul

But she can tear me apart or she can make me whole

My heart breaks like a fever

Was happy, now I fear that I need her

Once happy, always stepping on primrose

I have a hunch, but heaven only knows

She's a gentle soul

But she can tear me apart or she can make me whole

Ooh...another world away whenever we're away

She says it's not that way

But mine is a lonely soul

She says the darnest things

She says, she says, "You're too sweet for rock 'n' roll"
