Reckless

Last night, I lay dreaming

I was drinking in a hotel bar

Two women came up and kissed me

And you were watching from a distant star

I know it doesn't make much sense

But what can I tell you?

Judging by the evidence

I'm feeling reckless

I don't know why I would go there

All to make a fuss over what?

I've got a woman like you and what do I do?

Pretend I might be something I'm not

I know you know it's not your fault

It's just something inside me

Would that I were worth my salt

But I'm feeling reckless

You give me more than I deserve

You could say I've got some nerve

So slay me with your tender mercy

And comfort me with words of steel

You can catch me in a lie when I cast a roving eye

But you'll never know the way I feel

I know you know you're smarter than me

Tell me something I don't know

There's so much more that I could be

But I'm feeling reckless

Last night, I lay dreaming

I was drinking in a hotel bar

Two women came up and kissed me

And you were watching from a distant star
