Love ridden, I've looked at you With the focus I gave to my birthday candles I've wished on the lidded blue flames under your brow And, baby, I wished for you
Nobody sees when you are lyin' in your bed And I wanna crawl in with you but I cry instead I want your warm but it will only make me colder when it's over So I can't tonight, baby
No, not baby anymore If I need you, I'll just use your simple name Only kisses on the cheek from now on And in a little while we'll only have to wave
My hand won't hold you down no more The path is clear to follow through I stood too long in the way of the door And now I'm givin' up on You
