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 lying 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 giving up on you
