| Avoid Those Embarrassing Misheard Lyric Moments |
well don't you know I need a little indulgence / listen to the hunter becoming hunted / everyday there's a million advances / don't be too forceful you'll ruin your chances / well don't you know that / time is a broken glass that splinters against the wall / but the picture is coming back now baby / and I want to take it all -->chorus: don't go making all these promises you know you cannot keep / there's a time to play a king and a time to be a thief / cause if your making all these promises you know you cannot keep / you know time will be the thief and your fallen king will end up alone so let your body move a little bit closer / silent like the sound proceeding a cyclone / don't you know that powerful thinking / is a force you don't want to relinquish / well don't you know that / they say that hanging on will justify the wait / but patience and elated wisdom don't share a common phrase -->chorus well I'm only hanging on for what goes down baby / I'm floating high and my feet don't touch the ground / I'd take advantage but I can't see through this charade / so don't you don't you go make it harder than hell / don't go making promises don't go making promises / when it comes down to the making / you better be damned sure you can take it / hey baby -->chorus time will be the thief / and your fallen king will end up / a fool a fool a lonely sorry fool / oh baby cause I told you baby |
