lyrics

Blast off into space, keep heading for the stars
Keep running on faith and I'll take care of your heart
I'm reaching for you, you just gotta dial me in
Your readings are coming in true, I'll love you 'til the end
Will you still love me then,
when I'm black and blue,
when I'm down and out baby
Cause I'm born to lose!!
Yeah, I'm born to lose!

Set phasers to kill and aim it to my chest
I'll bow to your will cause you're a goddess in distress
Just look into my eyes, yeah you know you are mine
Baby, I need you, I want you all the time
Will you still love me then,
when I'm black and blue,
when I'm down and out baby
Cause I'm born to lose!!
Yeah, I'm born to lose!

Yeah it's just you and me, flesh to flesh
finger on finger, I retrace every step
Back to your heart, theres a place for you and me in eternity
Back of your mind, you know its true, you love me and I love you
But, will you still love me then,
when I'm black and blue,
when I'm down and out baby
Cause I'm born to lose!!
Yeah, I'm born to lose!
