Oh, the star-eyed troubadour sleeps with the eternal And wakes up in the gutter with a song to sing The magic of the evening is so fleeting And when it's gone, how we long We punish our souls for being unclean And bask in the glory of living obscenely The fringe is a friend and our friends build the memories We sacrifice for the song Oh, it's maddening, running to the feast Hiding from the monsters in the belly of the beast Just give me your love, it's all I need Hide me from the monsters in the belly of the beast I'd like to call home, tell 'em about this town A northwest gem just nestled in a mountain Greeted me early with the peaceful sounds Of the wind in the evergreens I should go walking, it's not something I do But feeling this light makes me miss the blues The gutter is lonely, it's a tool I use It's the road I'm traveling Oh, it's maddening, running to the feast Hiding from the monsters in the belly of the beast Just give me your love, it's all I need Hide me from the monsters in the belly of the beast Oh, it's maddening running to the feast Hiding from the monsters in the belly of the beast Just give me your love, it's all I need Hide me from the monsters in the belly of the beast Just give me your love (it's all I need) Just give me your love (it's all I need) Just give me your love (it's all I need) It's all I need
