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
