oh bar room eyes shine vacancy
to see her you got to look hard
wounded deep in battle,
I stand stuffed like some solider undaunted
to her cheshire smile, I stand on file
she's all I ever wanted
you let your blue walls stand in the way of these facts, honey
get your carpetbaggers off my back
girl give me time to cover my tracks
she said "here's your mirror and your ball and jacks"
but their not what I came for
oh I came for so much more
and I know you know that too
(and I know you know that too)
and I know you know that's [bad word] (I came for you)

I came for you
I came for you
I came for you, for you, I came for you

Crawl into my ambulance,
your pulse is getting weak
reveal yourself all to me now,
while you got the strength to speak
cause there waiting for you at Bellevue
with their oxygen masks
but I could give it all to you now,
if only you could ask
don't call for your surgeon,
even he say's it late,
it not your lungs this time
but your heart holds your fate
don't give me my money back,
don't want it anymore
it's not that nursery mouth I came back for
it's not the way you stretched out on the floor
I've broken all your windows
and I rammed through all your doors
and who am I to ask you to fight my wars
and you should know that's [bad word] (I came for you)
you should know that too
(I came for you)

I came for you
I came for you
I came for you, for you, I came for you

don't call for your surgeon,
even he say's it late,
it not your lungs this time
but your heart holds your fate
don't give me my money back,
don't want it anymore
it's not that nursery mouth I came back for
it's not the way you stretched out on the floor
I've broken all your windows
and I rammed through all your doors
and who am I to ask you to fight my wars
and you should know that's [bad word] (I came for you)
you should know that too
(I came for you)

I came for you
I came for you
I came for you
I came for you
I came for you, for you, I came for you

(fading out)
I came for you
I came for you
