Far and wide, I've searched for the coin
In the mouth of a fish
And I have found nothing yet

Call on the half moon to shine it's light onto
your loaded heart
Well this has gotta start
Wish I could move you with ten thousand talents
But all I've got is this fever heart
Burns like the sun, all the hearts that you've won
Only go so far
Far as I can tell

I can swim but I don't walk on water
I'd never have known if I never had bothered
And these days I'm a little off balance
'Cause I am a slave to ten thousand talents
But I can tell you right now that if you
Do that again I will up and leave you
So fast it will make your head spin
Do you know all of the trouble that you're in?

Ten thousand talents that you'll never see
That's ten thousand talents that I'll never be
Ten thousand reasons to stay or leave me

Ten thousand talents that you'll never see
That's ten thousand talents that I'll never be
Ten thousand reasons to stay or leave me

Ten thousand talents that you'll never see
That's ten thousand talents that I'll never be
Ten thousand reasons to stay or leave me
