Lyrics:

I can't believe I survived the fall

Told myself it never mattered at all

And like the phoenix rising high

Nothing for me but clear blue sky

God, I'm barely getting by

I need your love so deep

Brings me down to my knees

Why won't you leave me alone

You know that I can't sleep

Without your love so deep

Nothing ventured, nothing gained

I'm more than happy to shoulder the blame

A man like me needs room to breathe

Told you one day I'd up and leave

God, I can't stand being free

I need your love so deep

Brings me down to my knees

Why won't you leave me alone

You know that I can't sleep

Without your love so deep

I've got to find a way to break this hold

It ain't as simple as just letting go

I think the tried and true has met its match

Truth be told

Maybe its just enough to state my case

This fancy-free don't seem to suit my taste

I think that we should meet to work it out

Face to face

Because I need your love so deep

I need your love so deep

Brings me down to my knees

Why won't you leave me alone

You know that I can't sleep

Without your love so deep
