I hate to see you lying there and curled up in a ball
I hate to smash your pretty face against the fucking wall
But Im a desperate man, girl, Im down on my knees
I hate to see you crying, I hate to see those tears
Youre the one whos sitting there just tossing out the years
Why you doing this? Why you wanna go?
Wont you ever understand?
Youre my woman and Im your man
And every time I hear your name
The floodgates open, blood it rains
And I cant see where I went wrong
You cant leave while Im not strong
(And I can see you run and hide)
Oh baby, wont you ever let me
(See you run and hide)
Oh baby, wont you ever let me live my life
Cause Im afraid I just dont love you
So pick yourself on up, girl, just straighten yourself out
Pick up all those wasted years, youre so torn about
Put them back, girl, back up on the shelf
On the shelf, yeah
You and me will be forever
Im your hero and youre my treasure
Every time I hear your name
The floodgates open, blood it rains
And I cant see where I went wrong
You cant leave while Im not strong
(And I can see you run and hide)
Oh baby, wont you ever let me
(See you run and hide)
Oh baby, wont you ever let me live my life
Cause Im afraid I just dont love you
Every time I hear your name
The floodgates open, blood it rains
And I cant see where I went wrong
You cant leave while Im not strong
(And I can see you run and hide)
Oh baby, wont you ever let me
(See you run and hide)
Oh baby, wont you ever let me live my life
Cause Im afraid I just dont love you
