(Music by Richard Marx and Bruce Gaitsch
Lyrics by Richard Marx)
I've got the fever poison in my veins
My mind ain't working right
I know the answer, the way to ease this pain
Only got myself to fight
I can see clearly but choose to be blind
A slave to desire
Holding me, scolding me, changing your mind
You're like playing with fire
I need you
I want to stay on this soul motion ride
There is no danger when you're here by my side
Given some distance just a little time
right and wrong seems clear
But my sense of reason is nothing but unkind
Everytime that you're near
Over and over I say to myself
Ooh, she's only playing ten thousand reasons to find someone else
Still I hear myself saying
chorus
I'm out here on the edge
And I know what's in store
It should be over and done, just let go and run
but I've tasted too much
Nothing's the same anymore
chorus
