- Songwriters: John Hiatt
You bring out the fool in me
The blind man at the bar
Who whistles for his drink and his cane
And shows everyone his scar
You're lovely and you're cruel
You got me in a trance
You put my soul in those hot, hot coals
And you make my spirit dance
Motorboat to heaven
Baby's got the key
Tell me, how am I 'sposed to get in close
Back here on these water skis
You tell me everything
It makes me want to hide
But I know there ain't no place that can erase
All the things I feel inside
So I'm out here in the wind
It seems to be my fate
To cruise the night like some lost kite
Who knows, it's just too late
Motorboat to heaven
Baby's got the key
Tell me, how am I 'sposed to get in close
Back here on these water skis
Tell me, how am I 'sposed to get in close
Back here on these water skis
In the Know
