lyrics

Welcome, welcome please sit down and while i speak dont you make a sound
not that any of this will mean a thing

Just let me poke fun at you I swear what I speak I wont do
These words I speak are only words indeed



you can search across the land to find yourself a better man
someone to hold you close so you dont break
I wish you would dry those tears and let go of the last few years
and toughen up that fragile skin of yours

Hon relax cuz you know me and like i said some day you'll see
That it pays to walk the earth more like a man
i'll take you on a moon light ride I'll cut your neck and sell your hide
and I "mean it" from the bottom of my heart

you can search across the land to find yourself a better man
someone to hold you close so you dont break
I wish you would dry those tears and let go of the last few years
and toughen up that fragile skin of yours


Well hon relax and put your little hand in mine
cuz you never know what we might encounter
and if your mirror mirror on the wall is tired of answering true or false
well maybe he just tired of talking to you
