Jackson Browne Lyrics

Album: Best Of ... Live

My Problem Is You Lyrics

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'ld 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

Waiting for you

I have no problem telling right from wrong

Fiction from what's true

No problem telling the dream from the dawn

My problem is you

Waiting here for you

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 that 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

Waiting for you

I have no problem with this crooked world

I play the cards I drew

No problem with the changes life has hurled

My problem is you

Waiting here for you

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

I have no problem telling right from wrong

The way some people do

I know exactly where these arms belong

My problem is you

Waiting here for you

And I don't worry about the ozone layer

Just let those rays come through

When I'm outside I keep my clothes on

My problem is you

Waiting here for you

And I don't worry about Madonna

Or the next thing she might do

And I don't worry about your mamma

My problem is you

Waiting here for you
