Take anything to get you by
Taste the rain and stay awake tonight
And all the things that make you mine
But you only love me on your time

You broke the window and set the school on fire
I always knew that you were the 'rock and roll child'
Telling you, all the things I've done
Fell by the wayside at every one

Burning like the sun through the years
For you, my love, I cried a thousand tears
And all these things I know that make you mine
You only love me on your time

Went to a preacher to read my mind
He said that all good things will come in time
The doctor asked me why I keep on drinking
I said so I can forget the feeling

Burning like the sun through the years
For you, my love, I cried a thousand tears
And all these things I know that make you mine
You only love me on your time
