Tommy, put down the phone, go fly free

Light and starvation are gonna love me

Take your time, throw every stone

I'm gettin' down to nothing so you can hit my bones

I'll take a knife to the hog if you want skin in the game

I'll take my baby teeth and write your beautiful name

Oh baby, one more prayer, I swear I'll surrender

I just can't keep holding on

One more night, I swear I'll surrender

You can take him, Gloria

Gloria, Gloria, Gloria

Come take him, Glo, Gloria

Gloria

And it might be true for you, but it's not true for me

That the hardest part of letting go is that it's easy

You said on Easter Day, darling, you had gone up to her

I'm glad that you have risen, babe, but I'm still a desert wanderer

I'll take a nail to the cross, redeem your passion play

But I won't tear my hair 'cause I'm still a lady there

Oh baby, one more prayer, I swear I'll surrender

I just can't keep holding on

One more night, I swear I'll surrender

You can take him, Gloria

Gloria, Gloria, Gloria

Take him, Glo, Gloria

Gloria

Beware of the prophets with the shiny shoes

Oh Lord, beware of anyone who needs to bleed for you

Baby, one more prayer, I swear I'll surrender

I just can't keep holding on

One more night, I swear I'll surrender

You can take him, Gloria

Gloria, Gloria

Come take him, Glo, Gloria

Take him, oh, take him

Take him, Gloria

No, no, take him, Gloria

Gloria
