Are you the man that I love
Or a man with a gun sitting next to me?

The big bad world had me acting crazy
So I called the lifeboat man
All you need are your fears
And a few thousand tears
It's a rescue plan

I sneezed another brave idea
I wanna come look for you
And it'll be wonderful if I ever get there

But if I fall
Would there be another stone in my shoe?
Making it harder to come back to you
Another stone in my shoe?

And if I fly, lift your eyes
As my paper boat sails away
Could it be too late?
Or is our fate just another stone in my shoe
Another stone in my shoe, in my shoe

Tell me, is that bomb your friend?
Do you live in a three-cornered house
Hoping that all the pain will end
Do you?

One day you're irresistible
Then you tell me that there is no lifeboat man
You tell me that I'd better be off now
Babe, you need the rescue plan

I sneezed another brave idea
I wanna come look for you
And it'll be wonderful if I ever get there

But if I fall
Would there be another stone in my shoe?
Making it harder to come back to you
Another stone in my shoe?

And if I fly, lift your eyes
As my paper boat sails away
Could it be too late?
Or is our fate just another stone in my shoe

I see you peeping through the clouds
Your smile is beckoning me
‽So far to go”, voices say loud

But if I fall
Would there be another stone in my shoe?
Making it harder to come back to you
Another stone in my shoe?

And if I fly, lift your eyes
As my paper boat sails away
Could it be too late?
Or is our fate just another stone in my shoe
Another stone in my shoe, in my shoe
In my shoe, in my shoe, in my shoe, in my shoe

Are you the man that I love
Or a man with a gun sitting next to me?
