Princess cards she sends me with her regards,

 Oh, bar-room eyes shine vacancy to see her you gotta look hard

Wounded deep in battle, I stand stuffed like some soldier undaunted

 To her cheshire smile I'll stand on file, she's all I ever wanted

 You let your blue walls get in the way of these facts, honey

Get your carpet baggers off my back

Girl give me time to cover my tracks

 You said, "Here's your mirror and your ball and jacks"

 But they're not what I came for

 Oh I came for so much more

 And I know you know that too

 And I know you know that's true

 I came for you

 I came for you

 I came for you, for you I came for you

Crawl into my ambulance, your pulse is getting weak

 Reveal yourself all to me now, while you've got the strength to speak

 'Cause they're waiting for you at Bellevue with their oxygen masks

 But I could give it all to you now, if only you could ask

 Don't call for your surgeon even he says it's late

 It's not your lungs this time but your heart holds your fate

 Don't give me my money back don't want it anymore

It's not that nursery mouth I came back for

 It's not the way you're stretched out on the floor

 I've broken all your windows and I've rammed through all your doors

Who am I to ask you to fight my wars

 And you should know that's true

You should know that too

 I came for you

 I came for you

 I came for you, for you I came for you

Solo

 Don't call for your surgeon even he says it's late

 It's not your lungs this time but your heart holds your fate

 Don't give me my money back don't want it anymore

It's not that nursery mouth I came back for

 It's not the way you're stretched out on the floor

 I've broken all your windows and I've rammed through all your doors

Who am I to ask you to fight my wars

 And you should know that's true

You should know that too

 I came for you

 I came for you

 I came for you

 I came for you

 I came for you, for you I came for you
