Hearts In Babylon
The Hearts in Babylon come fast,
Like Dreams that just aren't meant to last.
They make you lose your fucking mind,
But still, just one you'd Love to find.
For Hearts in Babylon are few,
And maybe one of them is true.
-
Oh, Babylon, surrender one
To hold right here beneath the Sun.
Even if for a moments time,
Thats all I need for piece Of mind.
-
The Hearts in Babylon are drugs,
Injected feelings. Hate and Love.
You'll start to fiend soon as it's gone
And moments feel like they're too long.
You'll do all that you have to do,
To get that Dope back round to you.
-
Oh, Babylon, surrender one
To hold right here beneath the Sun.
Just tie me off and shoot me high
Then leave me there up in the sky.
-
The Hearts in Babylon are great,
So fucking hard to Love or Hate.
But give me one that evermore,
Feeds this fire that I store.
For with Her it will be at peace,
Without Her its a fucking beast.
-
Oh, Babylon, wont you give heed
And give me what it is I need?
Just one that I have yet to know,
A Heart that will not let me go.
-
The Hearts in Babylon come fast,
Like Dreams that just aren't meant to last.
They make you lose your fucking mind,
But still, just one you'd Love to find.
And know soon as one drifts away,
You'll beg the stars for one more day.
-
So, Babylon, surrender one,
That makes me feel comfortably numb.
I dont need anything but this:
A Heart that saves for me a Kiss.
Like Dreams that just aren't meant to last.
They make you lose your fucking mind,
But still, just one you'd Love to find.
For Hearts in Babylon are few,
And maybe one of them is true.
