The Smashing Pumpkins — The Crying Tree of Mercury

[Verse 1] This is the song I’ve been singing my whole life I’ve been waiting like a knife To cut open your heart And bleed my soul into you I did it all for you You and you, and you, and you [Verse 2] This is the sound I’ve been making my whole life I’ve been waiting for this night To clear up all the talk Although, I’m selfish to a fault Is it selfish, it’s you I want? You, I did it all for you [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] This love will stand as long as you There’s really no excuse I did it all for you [Verse 4] These are the tears I’ve been crying my whole life Like an ocean of desire I’m reaching through the noise Across the dusk of time Within the lilting lies I am singing out to you
