MELISSA ETHERIDGE lyrics - Drag Me Away

Did you think that I was leaving

My ticket was just one way

The angels I believed in

Were gonna carry me away

Did you think that I would simply

Give them my last breath

Well honey you've got me wrong

I would never leave you for death



It's gonna take more than that to get rid of me

It's gonna take more than that to make me fade

They'll have to tie me up and drag me away

They'll have to shut my mouth and drag me away



There is no one I serve

I am not here to please

I will not be a hostage

To my own dis-ease

Come on out and hold me

Out into the great sunlight

No power on earth can stop us

We both become one tonight



I've never been more sure of anything

I've never been more sure of what I am

They'll have to tie me up and drag me away

They'll have to shut my mouth and drag me away

There is no dark that can over come a flame

There is no force that can

Drag me away



They could bring an army

Ten thousand men or more

Their mass weapons of destruction

Won't even up the score

Come on come on baby

They'll have to drag me away

They'll have to tie me up and drag me away

They'll have to shut my mouth and drag me away

There's no dark that can overcome a flame

There's no force that can drag me away
