Rapscallion blind careless cock-your-gun      
frump grump man that I am
I've been trying the best that I can
Super-sweet kiloton   
great-guns mock-the sun     
gorgeous woman that you are
I crave a glimpse of you my morning star

Come on and open the door,
You know I've been here before
Let me show you the way
You see me lying on the floor
You know I can't take anymore
Come and show me the way
The way, the way that we can be...


Over-rough, tuff and gruff 
huff and puff, fool-enough 
doctor-stuff man that I am
Please don't think that I don't give a damn
Queen-legs channel one 
finely spun golden sun     
woman that I truly love
You will always be one from above
Come on and show me what to know
I long to be the wax for your mold
Come and show me the way
You see me swimming for the shore 
You know I can't tread anymore
Come and show me the way
The way, the way, that we can be....
The way, the way, the way that we can be...
 
I wish that I could read your mind and see the real me
And understand and make a change to be your cup of tea
If only you could feel my love, it doesn't always show I know
So here I heel, howling at the moon....
 
Psyche ward self-absorbed     
well snored pious fraud devil-dog wolf that I am
Please don't dwell on my pentagrams
Sunbeam Body -queen      
vision in a torrid dream      
a light house in a raging sea
Will you ever wake up next to me?
Come on and answer the phone
Your silence chills me to the bone
Let me tell you the way
You watch me slipping on a noose
Oh won't please cut me loose
Won't you show me the way?
The way, the way that we can be....

Outgunned outrun 
overdone re-run 
owe-you-one snake in my breath
I will love you well beyond my death
Unfading unfailing uplifting arresting 
angel golden flapping wings
You are all of my favorite things
Come on and open the door
I don't want to fight anymore
Won't you show me the way?
You see me drowning on the shore
You're all I've been gasping for
Won't you show me the way?
The way, the way that we can be....
