Intro Verse 1 Some things frying On the floor below I'm leaning out My window Verse 2 same pattern The sky's on fire The streets all a glow Somebody's singing To the radio Chorus 1 I would jump from the 16th floor If only to get next to you Put my head in a lion's jaw If i only could get next to you Verse 3 I'm walking the floor I'm climbing the walls I wake up from dreaming That's when I fall Chorus 2 I would jump from the 16th floor If only to get next to you Put my head in a lion's jaw If I only could get next to you Take a ride on a wrecking ball Yes I would darling Bridge 1 Everyday I speak your name If I had wings I would fly Cause your'e not here to hold me Chorus 3 I would jump from the 16th floor Oooooh Oooooh Oooooh Put my head in a lion's jaw " " " I would walk on burning coal " " " I'd sell my only soul " " " Bridge 2 (as before) Everyday I speak your name If I had wings I'd fly Cause your'e not here to hold me Chorus 4 just repeat chorus 3 and fade out.
