one blaze of glory
one blaze of glory -- glory
find glory
in a song that rings true
truth like a blazing fire
an eternal flame
find one song
a song about love
glory
from the soul of a young man
a young man

they say i have the best ass below 14th street
do you go to the cat scratch club?
would you light my candle?
we could light the candle
oh won't you light the candle?

what happened to benny
what happened to his heart
and the ideals he once pursued?

what's the time?
well it's gotta be close to midnight
my body's talking to me
it says, "time for danger"
it says "i wanna commit a crime
wanna be the cause of a fight
wanna put on a tight skirt and flirt
with a stranger"

the heart may freeze or it can burn
the pain will ease if i can learn
there is no future, there is no past
i live this moment as my last
there's only us, there's only this
forget regret or life is yours to miss
no other road
no other way
no day but today

live in my house, i'll be your shelter
ust pay me back with one thousand kisses
be my lover -- i'll cover you
open your door, i'll be your tenant
don't got much baggage to lay at your feet
but sweet kisses i've got to spare
i'll be there and i'll cover you
i think they meant it when they said you can't buy love
now i know you can rent it
a new lease you are my love on life -- be my life
just slip me on, i'll be your blanket
wherever -- whatever -- i'll be your coat
you'll be my king and i'll be your castle
no you'll be my queen and i'll be your moat

i should tell you, i should tell you
trusting desire, starting to learn
walking through fire without a burn
clinging -- a shoulder, a leap begins
stinging and older, asleep on pins
so here we go

every single day i walk down the street
i hear people say,"baby's so sweet"
ever since puberty everybody stares at me
boys, girls .... i can't can't help it baby
so be kind, don't lose your mind
just remember that i'm your baby

maybe you'll see why when you stop escaping your pain

you don't want baggage without lifetime guarantees
you don't want to watch me die
i just came to say
goodbye, love
goodbye, love
came to say goodbye, love, goodbye

your eyes as we said our goodbyes
can't get them out of my mind
and i find i can't hide from your eyes
the ones that took me by surprise
the night you came into my life
where there's moonlight i see your eyes
how'd i let you slip away
when i'm longing so to hold you
now i'd die for one more day
cause there's something i should have told you
yes there's something i should have told you
when i looked into your eyes
why does distance make us wise?
you were the song all along
and before this song dies
i should tell you i should tell you
i have always loved you
you can see it in my eyes
