Halestorm - Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover Lyrics






That old dog has chained you up all right
Give you everything you need
To live inside a twisted cage
Sleep beside an empty rage
Sleep beside in empty rage
I had a dream I was your hero

Damn I wish I was your lover
I'd rock you till the daylight comes
Make sure you are smiling and warm
I am everything
Tonight I'll be your mother
I'll do such things to ease your pain
Free your mind and you won't feel ashamed
Open up gonna come inside
Gonna fill you up
Make you cry

This bloke can't stand to see you black and blue
I give you something sweet each time you
Come inside my jungle book
It's just too good
Don't say you'll stay
Cause then you go away

Damn I wish I was your lover
I'll rock you till the daylight comes
Make sure you are smiling and warm
I am everything
Tonight I'll be your mother
I'll do such things to ease your pain
Free your mind and you won't feel ashamed
Shucks
For me there is no other
You're the only shoe that fits
I can't imagine I'll grow out of it
Damn I wish I was your lover

If I was your girl believe me
I'd turn on the Rolling Stones
We could groove along and feel much better
Let me in
I could do it forever and ever, ever n' ever
Give me an hour to kiss you
Walk through heaven's door I'm sure
We don't need no doctor to feel much better
Let me in
Forever and ever and ever and ever

I sat on the mountainside with peace of mind
I lay by the ocean making love to her with visions clear
Walked for days with no one near
And I return as chained and bound to you

Damn I wish I was your lover
I'll rock you till the daylight comes
Make sure you are smiling and warm
I have everything
Tonight I'll be your mother
I'll do such things to ease your pain
Free your mind and you won't feel ashamed
Shucks for me there is no other
You're the only shoe that fits
I can't imagine I'll grow out of it
Damn I wish I was your lover
Open up gonna come inside
Gonna fill you up
Make you cry

  13. J.... G....

    I never really cared for the original, but Halestorm makes even the worst songs rock! I don't think that they are capable of doing a bad song.

  14. s.... ....

    Bet she would do an amazing version of Doro pesche 's all we are

  15. T.... F....

  16. T.... H....

    Come to the wolf Lzzy

  17. d.... ....

    Damn, great to heat this classic, given some new life.

  18. L.... :....

    I seriously thought this was their song

  19. M.... S....

    It's not horrible and Lizzy's voice is fantastic as always but no one's ever going to top Sophie Hawkins on this!

  20. D.... K....

    horrible

  21. G.... ....

    Oh go on then.

  22. H.... L....

    Like her voice and the off beat style drumming.

  23. A.... I....

    Wow this is a good version and i dont even like rock. Is this not sophie? Sure sounds like her.

  24. M.... F....

    Loving the Genesis at the very beginning...

    Damn! Seriously? I do not know that she's coming out as a bisexual.
    I love her and her group band.
    May I know where I could find the article about her coming out? Thank you. 😊

  34. J.... H....

  35. K.... L....

    This proves how well she can sing so why is there own music lame in comparison?

    K.... L....

    Kim L

    Have you check their new song? Black Vultures is great! 😊

  36. M.... C....

    I think that Haletstorm could pull of a kick ass version of Alannah Myles- Black Velvet... just saying.

    M.... C....

    Absolutley!!!!!!! I wish they would.

    M.... C....

    Madison Conley i would love to hear that!

    M.... C....

  44. M.... S....

    https://www.facebook.com/groups/622700497869823/

  45. C.... M....

    i'd love to hear them covering Animal instinct by the Cranberries

  46. S.... T....

    sorry meant she is the new QUEEN being going 48hr straight

  47. S.... T....

    correction she is the next Queen

  48. J.... P....

    I'm a big fan of halestorm I been trying to say hi to lizzy and the guys i sent her a privet message on hangouts only asking 5 min I know there bizz too there great keep rocking

  49. b.... ....

    Halestorm beware! I'm watching you

  50. S.... K....

    I like how lzzy changes shucks to fuck

  51. C.... A....

    You know, I was wondering what's the purpose of having a second guitarist in the band if both of them play the same parts?

  52. J.... K....

    get your ass over here lizzy j hale

    J.... K....

    dude check Halestorm's wiki page and scroll down. You'll find a picture of Lzzy from behind, dayum dat ass.

  53. J.... K....

    i love you baby

  54. J.... V....

    I usually do not like all the songs on a record. But DAMN, Reanimate 3 it's clearly an exception!

  55. E.... S....

    DAMN great cover!

  56. C.... ....

    I'm addicted

  57. W.... ....

    This is damn good! Best covers in the industry.

  58. T.... M....

    Another Halestorm love it..

  59. C.... H....

    Sophie B Hawkins dance

  60. V.... H....

    Y'all kicked this songs ass!!!..great job!!

  61. K.... F....

    Can u come to Edmonton please

  62. M.... P....

    woah! You guys are awesome!

  63. l.... ....

    This is a good song for Halestorm to cover. With all respect to Sophie B. Hawkins, this song needs to be a little harder/rougher, like this.

    l.... ....

    It doesn't need to be harder/rougher, it's a pop song at first and they made a rock cover in my opinion both bring something interesting To the song

  64. R.... H....

    Love the driving beat between Josh and Arejay. Lzzy voice....nothing but gold.

  65. J.... D....

    How do I grant this wish?

  66. D.... R....

    I love you Lzzyyyyyy

  67. M.... �....

    I'm happy Halestorm moved towards a heavier sound. Not just these covers but also the new album has a different style than the previous albums. Studio records of their old songs had kind of pop influence in them. At least that was the feeling I got from them. So yaayy :-)

  68. D.... C....

    Whupped some ass AGAIN!! These "covers" are awesome, Lzzy & the fellas make 'em their own and from my personal perspective, a damn much better tune each & every one of 'em. It sure seems that collectively, the 4 members of the band only get better and look for interesting opportunities musically. BRAVO!!! Rock on!!

  69. D.... R....

    lizzy you are amazing!!! fantastic cover.....

  70. L.... M....

    Seriously in love with this cover! Can't stop listening to it!

    Lzzy, you're too awesome to be true

  71. P.... D....

    She has a great voice (reminiscent of Pink), but this rendition strips the sensuality from the original. The cover of Joan Jett, tho, is spot on!

  72. H.... R....

    Wow didn't like this song until now!! But like I said Lzzy Hale can do anything in music! Please don't stop!! Amazes me every time I hear her and Halestorm!!

  73. B.... F....

    I like, pretty much, everything Halestorm does. But, this song was meant to be done by Sophie B. Hawkins, and nobody but Sophie B. Hawkins.

  74. �.... ....

    hardrock

  75. M.... M....

    Great cover!!

  76. B.... M....

    Exactly what this song was missing!!!!!

  77. d.... t....

    Ah, 1993.

  78. A.... B....

    cant wait for Tuesdays night to see you guys again

  79. M.... ....

    COME TO SERBIA !!!

  80. d.... ....

    Singing along as tears fall down my face. I love this so much

  81. B.... M....

    Is it me or does she sounds like Pink?

    B.... M....

    Carina Kriessman they can but these two don't. it's cool that the band can afford to make a cover but it doesn't have the sensuality of the original.

    B.... M....

    Yeah, right. Sounds good but just is missing something

    B.... M....

    She is better !!!!!!!!!!!!!

    B.... M....

    Baba Milunka

    No. You can check their other songs, then you will know their voice are different. 😊

  82. T.... L....

    these guys make so many covers, and I fucking love it.

  83. M.... S....

    Awesome! I Love it!

  84. f.... c....

    good choice lzzy  ya rocked it ;)

  85. t.... ....

    My favorite!

  86. j.... l....

    this is way better

  87. J.... H....

    Amazing. Was always a huge closet fan of this song back in the day lol It is now cool to enjoy.

  88. i.... ....

    The original was sexy as hell, but the musical arrangement here just doesn't mesh well the lyrics. It has a very... disconnected feel to it. Still love Lzzy's voice though.

    i.... ....

    I agree..just went back & listened to the original version & that is so unique..this version does seem disjointed to me..but as you said, Lzzy is still awesome.

    i.... ....

    itsmezed it's not a exact copy it's their version of the song I do like when they get heavier with their covers

    i.... ....

    Yeah, it's like the music *alone* is good, Lzzy's voice *alone* is (always) good, but together it doesn't quite work. Of course part of it might be personal bias; the original was one of my favorite songs growing up. In general the covers Halestorm do are *great* -- and some are better than the originals :)

    i.... ....

    I agree

    i.... ....

    The musical arrangement here is 100% better! Than the original!

  89. �.... ....

    Великолепная композиция!!! Очень сильно нравится ваше творчество! Ждем вас снова в Москве!

  90. R.... I....

    it's good dude....

  91. Y.... N....

    A Halestorm of Lzzy....what a fantastic storm to be in.

  92. P.... C....

    the feeling is mutual Lzzy love you to.

  93. s.... ....

    Loads of awsome uploads within minutes. Gonna get the album .

    s.... ....

    +slashthe2nd its awesome !!

  94. A.... T....

    I know you wish you was my lover, Lzzy... I wish the same!

  95. m.... ....

    better then the original imo. Good job Halestorm! \m/

  96. K.... G....

    Damn this is better than porn

    K.... G....

    yeah....no... totally diiferent parts of the brain and body involved... unless you are ''helping yourself'' on music...which is weird, not bad....just weird...

    K.... G....

    james Branner i'm not talking literally. sex rules

    K.... G....

    well one thing we can agree on is lzzy has an amazing voice and is super hot

    K.... G....

    I think you meant to say DAMN!

    K.... G....

    Hahahaha, weird but true.
    \m/ ^-^ \m/

  97. s.... ....
