What would you say if you knew what I was thinking?
Maybe you do, but you know not to dig too deep,
What if I knew what you needed for sure?
I've seen in your eyes, you need more, much more.
And I could be happy, and you could be miserable,
I'll grab a metaphor out of the air: the Cuyahoga River on fire.
What can you say; the impossible happens,
What can you settle for?
What can you live without?
I remember the night I first darkened your door, and I swore that I loved you; my heart was pure.
You could be happy, and I could be miserable,
I'll grab a metaphor out of the air: the Cuyahoga River on fire.
My open window, a dream in the dark,
My fingers, your face, a spark, a trace.
I could be happy, and you could be miserable,
I'll grab a metaphor out of the air: the Cuyahoga River on fire.
I know a lot about the history of Cleveland, Ohio,
Disasters that have happened there, like the Cuyahoga River on fire.
