lyrics

Please stop mumbling and please speak up
before we all die of death
and if you wanna be polite
than I will be the villain
and we will sink on the subtle shores of Paradise
and contentment will be the only one
doing any killing

And I will be there for you

The Jester and the Queen they fell in love
and they closed all the doors behind them
she had only to bat her eyes
and he waved his white flag
and only on the subtle shores of Paradise
would a jester get mixed up in such a useless drag

And I will be there for you

Madame Mirabeau knew all the tricks
that make up this thing we call Life
it's hard enough just to get by
on only a dollar and a dime
here on the subtle shores of Paradise
she offered to teach me
but I said I ain't got time

But I will be there for you

Like my one true love
one day said to me
be free
from all enchantments and all spells
and the personalized hell you're in
Go wade out in the tall grass
where the young died and time passed
too fast
but hold onto me!
