|
Don't, don't, don't, don't leave me, don't leave me here |
|
Skirt in the air with muted cares, all limbs and love absurd |
|
I know I say, "Just let me stay" |
|
But stomp the ground, push me around and send me on my way |
|
No, no, no don't leave me, don't take my word |
|
I've lost my head, I need my bed |
|
I promise you my bird |
|
When I wake all sweet and sound |
|
Without a care or woe |
|
I'll thank you dear, I'll kiss you love |
|
No matter friend or foe |
|
I want to be the best I can |
|
For me, for you, for every man |
|
But I can slip, I lose my place |
|
This shamefulness is hard to face |
|
No, no, no don't tell me of what I've done |
|
I might ignore, just close the door before you have your fun |
|
You tell it with such grace and wit |
|
I know it can be humorous but I don't have the heart for it |
|
Oh, oh, oh don't look, I've lost my way |
|
I'll button up, hold out my cup and beg for a cliche |
|
I had no rights to a complaint |
|
I guess it's just a little nuts or all a bit insane |
|
I want to be the best I can |
|
For me, for you, for every man |
|
But I can slip, I lose my place |
|
This shamefulness is hard to face |
|
Oh, please let me keep my head |
|
It wouldn't do you any good just hanging by a thread |
|
I want to be the best I can |
|
Nose to the ground, it's pound for pound or stick it to the man |
|
I want to be the best I can |
|
For me, for you, for every man |
|
But I can slip, I lose my place |
|
This shamefulness is hard to face |
|
I want to be the best I can |
|
For me, for you, for every man |
|
But I can slip, I lose my place |
|
This shamefulness is hard to face |
