Loaf Meat For Crying Out Loud Lyrics

For Crying Out Loud Lyrics

I was lost till you were found

But I never knew how far down

I was falling

Before I reached the bottom





I was cold and you were fire

And I never knew how the pyre

Could be burning

On the edge of the ice field





And now the chilly Californian wind

Is blowing down our bodies again

And we're sinking deeper and deeper

In the chilly Californian sand

Oh I know you belong inside my aching heart

And can't you see my faded Levis bursting apart

And don't you here me crying

'Oh Babe, don't go'

And don't you hear me screaming

'How was I to know'





I'm in the middle of nowhere

Near the end of the line

But there's a border to somewhere waiting

And there's a tankful of time

Oh give me just another moment

To see the light of the day

And take me to another land

Where I don't have to stay

And I'm gonna need somebody

To make me feel like you do

And I will receive somebody

With open arms, open eyes

Open up the sky and let the planet

That I love shine through





For crying out loud

You know I love you





I was damned and you were saved

And I never knew how enslaved

I was kneeling

In the chains of my master





I could laugh but you could cry

And I never knew just how high

I was flying

Ah with you right above me





And now the chilly Californian wind

Is blowing down our bodies again

And we're sinking deeper and deeper

In the chilly Californian sand

Oh I know you belong inside my aching heart

And can't you see my faded Levis bursting apart

And don't you here me crying

'Oh Babe, don't go'

And don't you hear me screaming

'How was I to know'





I'm in the middle of nowhere

Near the end of the line

But there's a border to somewhere waiting

And there's a tankful of time

Oh give me just another moment

To see the light of the day

And take me to another land

Where I don't have to stay

And I'm gonna need somebody

To make me feel like you do

And I will receive somebody

With open arms, open eyes

Open up the sky and let the planet

That I love shine through





For crying out loud

You know I love you





For taking in the rain when I'm feeling so dry

For giving me the answers when I'm asking you why

My oh my, for that I thank you

For taking in the sun when I'm feeling so cold

For giving me a child when my body is old

Don't you know for that I need you





For coming to my room when you know I'm alone

For finding me a highway and for driving me home

For that I serve you





For pulling me away when I'm starting to fall

For revving me up when I'm starting to stall

And all in all for that I want you





For taking and for giving and for playing the game

For praying for my future in the days that remain

Oh Lord for that I hold you





Ah but most of all

For crying out loud

For that I love you

When you're crying out loud

You know I love you
