For Marlon

I broke my toes
'cause when I'm sad
I get as clumsy as a stupid clown
but you're way too young to understand
and I'm way too desperate to be sane

so I fall for you like a fool for gold
'cause you look so pure and I love your voice
I can hear the cracks of your youthful heart
and it makes me want to be
a part of that

'til I said
what's there on your arm?
you said don't look, please don't ask
I know you won't like to know that
I'm a recovering addict and sometimes I relapse

but if I get sober,
would you swear to love me?
if I get sober,
could you fall for me?

and I was ready and didn't car to doubt
the wheel has spin and left a drought
I thought I knew back then to never, ever trust
someone for who drugs come first

and I think there's no love
but just proof of love
and you've just proved me
that you'd never care
and it's been raining now for three days straight
as a sad reflect on my sorry state

and I remember you said with me you felt
the best that you've ever felt
and I think no drugs can replace
the warmth and tenderness that we embraced

and if you get sober,
I'll be here for you
if you get sober,
I'll be yours for good.
