Dalbello - Eleven lyrics

i follow head over heels taunting me like a messiah says, "do you believe in me?" i see you call out for me the line between Truth and Desire crumbles so easily i count the seconds and the minutes seem like hours to me i count to seven and the heat turns up another degree i count eLeVeN for the reasons why it happened to me so easily i count eLeVeN eLeVeN "free me", she says, "heal me" eLeVeN i count eLeVeN when you offer me the length of your hand i count eLeVeN when you caution me to strengthen my stand i count eLeVeN when you say that you're an innocent man-- oh spare me--baby--spare me ah did you ever stop to think about the need of a friend and go easy on me, easy?! i count eLeVeN when my patience hits a quarter to three i count eLeVeN in the name of what's important to me i count eLeVeN strikes for you, for not believing in me there ain't no heaven when a promise doesn't mean anything if all's forgiven i count eLeVeN-- i count eLeVeN don't save my soul don't raise my hope then take it away don't make me whole don't saveth my soul just let me go to rise up from the sleep i'm deep in to walk out from the dream i breathed in....home....home one....two the colour of blue lightening strikes in a moment of truth three....four the night that i swore i got nothing to prove -- you got nothin--no more and if all's forgiven i count eLeVeN thou shall not take a woman in vain thou shall not take another woman thou shall not put a promise to shame thou shall not make a fool of no one i count eLeVeN thou shall not take a woman in vain thou shall not take another woman thou shall not shape a man into clay thou shall not go on unforgiven (i gotta count) one....two the colour of blue lightening strikes in a moment of truth (and then i go) three....four the night that i swore i got nothing to prove -- you got nothin no more six....seven is almost eLeVeN you broke a word not easily given eLeVeN all's forgiven when i count eLeVeN
