It's Me Lyrics
You took a first-class trip to Paris
You danced in the streets of Spain
You followed the sun to Rio de Janeiro
Cuz you got so sick and tired of the
London rain
But honey, late at night
When you close your tires eyes
You'll be there
And I'll be here
And one of us will cry
It's me, it's me
When you need something more
Something you're dying for
It's me, it's me
When you can't see too clear
Baby, I'm always near
It's me
You played your cards, you felt the sorrow
Cuz all that dealer dealt was pain
But baby, where you gonna play tomorrow
The stakes were too damn high
And now, you're broke again
You can trip around till all your
money's blown
But who's the man that'll take you in
When all your luck is gone
It's me, it's me
What are you searching for
I know you can find my door
It's me, it's me
I know you've sinned every sin
But I'll still take you in
It's me
And me, I'm sitting here
Nothing much has changed
You broke my heart to pieces, babe
But that's nothing strange
Well, I ain't angry
That's all come and gone
My arms are still open wide girl
To catch you when you fall
And if someday you realize
Just where you belong
I'm the man that'll take you in
When all your luck's gone
It's me, it's me
When you need something more
Something you're dying for
It's me, it's me
When you can't see too clear
Baby, I'm always near
It's me, it's me
What are you searching for
I know you can find my door
It's me, it's me
I know you've sinned every sin
But I'll still take you in
It's me
Yeah, baby, it's me
You danced in the streets of Spain
You followed the sun to Rio de Janeiro
Cuz you got so sick and tired of the
London rain
But honey, late at night
When you close your tires eyes
You'll be there
And I'll be here
And one of us will cry
It's me, it's me
When you need something more
Something you're dying for
It's me, it's me
When you can't see too clear
Baby, I'm always near
It's me
Cuz all that dealer dealt was pain
But baby, where you gonna play tomorrow
The stakes were too damn high
And now, you're broke again
You can trip around till all your
money's blown
But who's the man that'll take you in
When all your luck is gone
What are you searching for
I know you can find my door
It's me, it's me
I know you've sinned every sin
But I'll still take you in
It's me
Nothing much has changed
You broke my heart to pieces, babe
But that's nothing strange
Well, I ain't angry
That's all come and gone
My arms are still open wide girl
To catch you when you fall
Just where you belong
I'm the man that'll take you in
When all your luck's gone
It's me, it's me
Something you're dying for
It's me, it's me
When you can't see too clear
Baby, I'm always near
What are you searching for
I know you can find my door
It's me, it's me
I know you've sinned every sin
But I'll still take you in
It's me
Yeah, baby, it's me

The Last Temptation is his third best solo album. I used to be bored by the song, but then I realized that the girl just symbolizes a person in general and the narrator is God. That's kind of sweet, I think. The person in the song has been sinning and moving from place to place, trying to find a meaning to their life, and God's waiting patiently for them to come back to Him. It's pretty evident in the lyrics, "What are you searching for? I know you can find my door" and "I know you've sinned every sin, but I will still take you in." Anyway, it's a religiously themed concept album, and so the love song of the album would of course be about God's forgiveness. This is just my interpretation, so if you're an Atheist, don't be offended.
While this song has Christian overtones, like most of this album, I'm not sure "me" is supposed to be God. I interpret as a song from the perspective of the "nice guy" who pursued a woman who turned out to be self-destructive, he sees, partly rightly, that she would be happier in the long run with him, but she's pursuing other men " til all your money's blown" etc.
Wow only 1 comment? Well I think this song is beautiful
This is a beautiful song off of my very favorite Alice Cooper album. I think the song is where the character of Steven is struggling with having the world's treasures given to him for selling his soul or resisting Temptation. Love this song and it kind of reminds me of I Never Cry.
Kind of one of his weaker ballads.
