Lyrics
Throw Your Wings Away
I put my hand to the flame
A cold reaction again
She runs in circles tryin’ to dodge the night
I bet baby you can dance alright
Some girls pretend to be good
Some say they are misunderstood
I hate to tell ya but the truth is tough now
Come on baby said enough is enough
I wanna burn like a primitive fire
But I can’t imagine how to spark your desire
What does it take to lead an angel astray
C’mon baby, throw your wings away
I’ve been a patient man
But some things I just can’t understand
I tell ya, she stands naked and I stand denied
I said, I can’t do nothin’ when my hands are tied
Some girls pretend to be good
Some say they are misunderstood
I hate to tell ya but the truth is tough now
Come on baby now enough is enough
I wanna burn like a primitive fire
But I can’t imagine how to spark your desire
What does it take to lead an angel astray
C’mon baby, throw your wings away
Beneath the halo you show
A secret burns within your heart
It’s somethin’ you can’t hide and we both know it
I wanna burn like a primitive fire
But I can’t imagine how to spark your desire
What does it take to lead an angel astray
C’mon baby, throw your wings away
C’mon baby, throw your wings away
