In Need of a Miracle

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There's something about you
Turns me inside out whenever you're around
There's something about you
Speeding thru my veins until we hit the ground
And there's something about this rush
Take it away
It made me feel so good
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
   There's something about Scully. The way she can balance on those 4
inch high heels and chase down a suspect. The way her eyes flash and
sear you with a look. The way she speaks. The way she can rationalize
everything with a turn of phrase so elegant she wants to make you 
abandon all your beliefs. Her looks, her smarts, everything combines to
make a wonderful package I have never seen before and probably never
will again. I'm a lucky bastard. I know. Even when she gives me those
highly implausible Rational Explanations, I still can't get enough.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There's something about you
That tears me inside out whenever you're around
And there's something about you 
That makes me fly
You're a heart attack just the kind I like
And there's something about your kiss
Haunting and strange
That makes me feel so good
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
   Whenever I'm around her, she makes me want to put my arms around her
and hold her. And I can't. The feeling is excruciating. I hate it. I've
often thought that it was simply forbidden fruit syndrome. But it's not;
there's nothing in Bureau regulations that say we can't do anything. So
I can't figure out what the deal is. Maybe we're scared. Or, rather, 
I'm scared. Scared that she'll reject me. But she hits me, right in the
gut, slams into my soul like a bolt of lightning. I have to be around
her. I don't know if it was a dream or a delusion or alternate reality
or what, but when I kissed her on the deck that ship, it just 'wow'. No
other word for it. And I hated to end it, but end it I did. And I got 
back to my Scully. I craved the sight of her like those painkillers
they gave me at the hospital. And I told her and she brushed me off, 
but I what lurked in that extremely giving heart of hers. I discovered
that on Christmas. I think that giving her a tube of underwear wasn't
exactly the right thing to give her, but then maybe I'll get the chance
to see her in them. Yeah, right.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This world may not have too much time
But baby I'm fine because you're mine
We just can't get enough
You better give up
Come on and give up
Get ready to give up your life
Give up your life
It's you for me and me for you
You make my dreams come true
Off the wall coming from me
But I wanna see this through, my baby
You're on my mind all the time
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
   We're on a countdown. A countdown to losing our minds, our bodies,
our very souls. But I keep going, trying. Only because she's here with
me. And I know she can't get enough of me. Proved it time and again.
But she won't give it up. Not for me and not for herself. But we're
good together. Apart, we suck, big time. I know it sounds crazy, even
from me, but I just have to say it. I think about her. I dream about
her. I even hallucinate about her. And I don't mind in the slightest.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And I don't want no one
If I can't have you
A world of illusion
But baby you're true
I know I deceived you
I once told you lies
If you don't believe me
Just look in my eyes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
   I haven't been with anyone for the longest time. What's the point 
when nobody is her? Even when Diana came breezing back into my life
a year ago, there wasn't even the slightest tug on my heartstrings. It's
only reserved for Scully. She is my rock, my port in a storm, the only
one I can go to. In this world of lies, she is the only person who 
remains constant. Yeah, sure I don't always tell her the truth about
things, but I only do it for good reason. I guess. So when I poured my
heart out to her, naturally she didn't believe me. If she had only 
looked at me closely, she would've known. She knows anyway. She's 
running. Running away from me. But most of all, running away from
herself. But someday...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
One day I'll go
Dancing on the moon
Someday you'll know 
That I was the one for you
I bought a ticket to the end of the rainbow
I watched the stars crash in the sea
If I could ask God just one question
Why aren't you here with me?
Someday you'll know 
That I was the One for you
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I looked for love in Memphis
I looked for love in Rome
Now that I finally got you
I just wanna take you home
I'm trying not to rush you
Because rushin' ain't no fun
But are you breakin' the law 
Or looking out for miracles
I think it's time you tell me where we stand
You've been takin' my love
We've been breakin' the law
You better start makin' my love
Because I'm in need of a miracle
Bedded a girl in Texas
And went all the way to Spokane
But I love you so much
I'm content to hold your hand
See I ain't in no hurry
I can't wait to be your man
But are you breakin' the law or lookin' out for miracles?
I think it's time you told me where we stand
You been takin' my love
We've been breakin' the law
You better start makin' my love
Because I'm in need of a miracle
You been takin' my love
You've been breakin' my love
You better start makin' my love
Because I'm in need of a miracle
I think it's time you tell me where we stand 
I took a train to Detroit
And then I rode a plane to Memphis
I've been all around this bad bad world
Just trying to find some tenderness
Takin' my love
We've been breakin' the law
You'd better start makin' my love
Because I'm in need of a miracle
See I took a train to New York
And then I rolled into Chicago
Yeah, I been all around this mean, mean, world
Only trying to find a heart of gold
