Valerie Lyrics

Will you ever change, my love?
Will you ever treat me well?
Will you ever hold me, dear,
The way that I hold you?

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e104025-the_bony_king_of_nowhere~valerie_lyrics.html ]
Will you ever understand
The kind of love you give is not enough, not enough?

You have locked yourself away,
And now you imprison me, too.
Your mouth is my prison and your arms are the walls
And you yourself stand guard.
And the door is open wide, my sister is waiting outside.
But I can't, no, I can't.

The golden tower you spy me from
Has lost its golden pride.
Your once so graceful and gentle soul
Now is drenched with fear.

I guess you'll never learn
That one cannot own another.
So they say, so they say.

Baby, I can hardly breathe,
I'm tired and I cannot sleep.
These chains are very heavy now,
As I carry them through our days.

And you tell me tomorrow will be fine
And you tell me that I am good.
So you say, so you say.

Will you ever change, my love?
Will you ever treat me well?
