Jackson Browne - My Problem Is You lyrics

Venus ringtone on your mobile phone

Tell me now and I'll understand

Does Venus hold you in the palm of her hand

Has her blackness touched your very heart

She'll smile sweetly as your world falls apart

(1)

And I just can't quit it babe

I just can't stand the pain

And I just can't quit it babe

I keep running back again

Little by little piece by piece

Your defenses have all slipped away

And real beauty's such an elusive thing

Somewhere down the line you'll have to pay

Repeat (1)

Oh no, its such a cold, cold feeling

Cuts your body to the bone

Oh no, its a strange, strange feeling

Loves been abandoned and I'm so alone

And everyday I see my flame growing dimmer

I've nothing left but this very life to save

And evry night I feel that I'm a winner

She's taking me down to the grave

And everyday I see my flame growing dimmer

I can't seem to chase the ghosts away

And every night I get too high, I'm a winner

I've nothing left but to pray

And every night she makes me feel like a winner

And every night she makes me think I'm a winner

Venus smiles and encircles me

And wraps me in a soft princely gown

Waves of darkness rise like the sea

In her addiction I will drown
