Last night, in the movie in my mind
Your father gave me his blessing
In a parked car with the engine on
The scene went dark, and we were gone

Don't wanna live playing hangman
Always asking for vowels
On the edge of death
Without the truth spelled out
So tell me now
Tell me now, tell me now
Tell me now, tell me now, tell me now

I am no hero, I am no anti-hero
I am only human with my own sacred desire
Counting down midnight, way down to zero
It's a new year, and I'm on your line

Don't wanna live playing hangman
Always asking for vowels
On the edge of death
Without the truth spelled out
So tell me now
Tell me now, tell me now
Tell me now, tell me now, tell me now

I have loved you from the beginning
I have loved you from the beginning
I have loved you from the beginning

Don't wanna live playing hangman
Always asking for vowels
On the edge of death
Without the truth spelled out
So tell me now
Tell me now, tell me now
Tell me now, tell me now, tell me now

I've loved you from the beginning
