Bless Me

It's so predictable
 To farm the parable
 From every tête-à-tête
 But when you see the end
 In every beginning
 Lessons are all you get
 Bless me
 Before you go
 You're goin' nowhere with me
 Met you in the wrestling pit
 You came when I needed it
 Ah, a body on top of me
 To teach me
 Stayed up past the witching hour
 You showed me your secret powers
 I wish that mine
 Could freeze time
 Bless me
 Before you go
 You're goin' nowhere with me
 Bless me
 Before you go
 You're goin' nowhere with me
 Cupid has it out for me
 Gave me crooked alchemy
 Eros, oh god of flings
 Sees the beauty in all things
 As stupid's as stupid does
 I grasp your cloak because
 Maybe you'll grant me wings
 If I cling
 Bless me
 Before you go
 You're goin' nowhere with me
 Bless me
 Before you go
 You're goin' nowhere with me
 You must be an angel
 Your conscience is clean
 Why would you soil yourself
 With a monster like me?
 If the good lord sent ya
 The good lord can take ya back
 I hope when he comes for you
 You illuminate the path
 Bless me before you go
 Bless me before you go
 Oh, ooh, ooh
 You're goin' nowhere with me, me
 You're goin' nowhere with me, me
 You're goin' nowhere with me
 You're goin' nowhere with me
 Bless me
 Before you go
 You're goin' nowhere with me
 Bless me
 Before you go
