Verse 1
Say the words again
Say the words again
It will feel like when
I used to take you out
Pre-Chorus
And you will love me
And you will love me
And you will love me
Verse 2
Say it really slow
Say it so I know
Just say the words again
And I’ll turn the music on
Pre-Chorus
And you will love me
And you will love me
And you will love me
Chorus
We have found the need to forget our fears and misconceptions
Now is the time to make good on all our promises
Verse 3
Say the words again
It will feel like when we ruled everything
And I will take you out
Just to hear you laugh
Pre-Chorus
And I would tell you that I loved you
And you would show me that it’s ok if
I should hold you, and you would tell me
that you loved me I would say it’s
All I need to know
Chorus
We have found the need to forget our fears and misconceptions
Now is the time to make good on all our promises
Verse 4
Say the words again
It will feel like when
We used to rule the world
And you would be my girl

It sounds like somthing John might play
one where he takes us miles away
or anywhere but here
'cause the ship in which we travel runs on cigarettes and beer
It sounds like something he might play
one where he takes us miles and miles
and miles and miles away
and I hope he takes us soon
'cause it's the only way for me out of this smoke filled room

The making of a saint
03:01

I'm trying to get out of this prison cell
I can't stand the cold and I can't take the smell
I'm biding my time until the moment's just right
I beat a man senseless without a fight
I'm trying to find my way out of a bind
I've got a woman outside of a decent kind
waiting outside in a different kind of world
trying real hard to be my girl
I couldn't help but notice
someone standing over
It's a long time since I lord said a prayer
and as the lights got lower
and the voices faded out
there's the making of a saint right there
Nothing in this world seems fair
take it all away man I don't care
I know I've only got myself to blame
it's a false confession all the same
My head is right down and my nose is kept clean
the walls have ears and those ears are mean
on just one occasion I stepped out of line
but you can't take more than a whole lifetime
I couldn't help but notice
someone standing over
It's a long time since I lord said a prayer
and as the lights got lower
and the voices faded out
there's the making of a saint right there
