MISSISSIPPI QUEEN

Pick me up now
On out of this hole
I can't seem to see the other side
Take me to a place
Where there's no one left to blame
It's just me that's trying to hide

I don't know
Where the loneliness goes
When I have you in my arms
You take my breath away
That's all that I can say
I just need you here right now

[chorus]
There's a sun that never dies
A sky that never cries
But now the sun don't shine anymore
I'm sick of being a whore
My Mississippi Queen
The devil's in my dreams

Wake me up
Get me out of this dream
'Cause life's a constant waterfall
Never really thought
That life could be this hard
But thanks to you I'm not alone

Come with me now
Let's get out of here
We'll drive to San Francisco Bay
We'll take a trip or two
Baby, I'll be next to you
And we'll return again
Return again someday

We will be free
Baby, you and me
I'll take care of you
No matter how hard life can be

[chorus]
There's a sun that never dies
A sky that never cries
But now the sun don't shine anymore
I'm sick of being a whore
My Mississippi Queen
The devil's in my head

Oh no, not again...

[chorus]
There's a sun that never dies
A sky that never cries
I don't have to be alone anymore
That's what love is for
My Mississippi Queen
You're always in my dreams
