I'm looking for no trouble, baby,
I'm not looking for a wife
I've had both of those already, baby,
In my life
I do want to go to heaven
And I don't know what that is
You don't want to talk about it
But I can feel it when we kiss
I'll tell you anyway
Just in case
Once I was a fool at heart
I was a man at everything
I killed an angel for her precious wings
And every time I could get some love
I put it right back in my arm
I guess it's true, baby,
There's no refuge in the storm
That's for another time
And another space
Oh baby will you be my starting place
I'd rather be a dead man
Pennies on my eyes
Than to see you walking with another guy
We don't keep our beauty, baby,
We don't keep our youth
Any man can tell a lie
But that won't change the truth
So take my love
Take my past
I will love you to my one last trace
Oh baby will you be my starting place
