My Problem Is You by Jackson Browne Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1993

[Verse 1]
To love and get away before the walls have arisen
You've got to be free
But to go on attempting to break into the prison
You'd have to be me
I wait for the sun to rise over the mountain
I wait for your touch
I wait for your angels to carry me home
But I wait too much

[Chorus]
(Waiting for you)
I have no problem telling right from wrong
(Waiting for you)
Fiction from what's true
(Waiting for you)
No problem telling the dream from the dawn
My problem is you
(Waiting for you)
Waiting here for you
(Waiting for you)
Waiting here for you
[Verse 2]
I wanted to live in the realm of the senses
You've got to know how
And for some kinds of pleasure there are no defenses
I know it now
Our love is a crackling ladder of lightning
Our love is a fire
Our love is a wave moving deep in an ocean
Of need and desire

[Chorus]
(Waiting for you)
I have no problem with this crooked world
(Waiting for you)
I play the cards I drew
(Waiting for you)
No problem with the changes life has hurled
My problem is you
(Waiting for you)
Waiting here for you
(Waiting for you)
Waiting here for you

[Bridge]
I need your wonder and I need your light
I need your tender touch to heal the night
I need you laughing and I need you free
And I need to lock you away deep inside of me
(Waiting for you)
(Waiting for you)
(Waiting for you)
(Waiting for you)
[Chorus]
(Waiting for you)
I have no problem telling right from wrong
(Waiting for you)
The way some people do
(Waiting for you)
I know exactly where these arms belong
My problem is you
(Waiting for you)
Waiting here for you
(Waiting for you)
Waiting here for you
(Waiting for you)
(Waiting for you)
(Waiting for you)
(Waiting for you)
And I don't worry about the ozone layer
(Waiting for you)
Just let those rays come through
(Waiting for you)
When I'm outside I keep my clothes on
(Waiting for you)
My problem is you
(Waiting for you)
Waiting here for you
(Waiting for you)
And I don't worry about Madonna
(Waiting for you)
Or the next thing she might do
(Waiting for you)
And I don't worry about your mamma
(Waiting for you)
My problem is you
(Waiting for you)
Waiting here for you
(Waiting for you)
Waiting here for you
(Waiting for you)
