You sit there in your heartache 
waiting on some beautiful boy To..to save you from your old ways 

You play forgivness watch it now here he comes 
he doesn't look a thing like jesus
but he talks like a gentleman like you imagined when you were young 

Can we climb this mountain i don't know higher now than ever before 
I know we can make it if we take it slow 
take it easy.. take it easy now watch it go 

We're burning down the highway skyline on the back of a hurricane it started turning 
when you were young 
when you were young 

And sometimes you close your eyes and see the place where you used to live 
when you were young 

They say the devils water it ain't so sweet
you don't have to drink right now
but you can dip your feet in every once and a little while 

You sit there in your heartache 
waiting on some beautiful boy To..to save you from your old ways 

You play forgivness watch it now here he comes 
he doesn't look a thing like jesus
but he talks like a gentleman like you imagined when you were young 

(talks like gentleman like you imagined) when you were young 
when you were young 
I said he doesn't look a thing like jesus 
he doesn't look a thing like jesus 
but more than you wil ever know
