When you go away, it tries my patience
I ain’t got a whole lot of time
I always seem to end up standing at the station
Crying to the end of the line
I know you don’t own nothing of me, or want to
But ain’t I got a right to say—
Baby don’t go
Or the wind and the world slip away
And I end up
Standing in circles again
And spinning my whole world around
Well I can’t find a friend on whom I can
Depend or defend, and I’m down
I’ve been spending all the time in limbo
You know, but you go on
So lay low
No show until it’s gone
Empty bed mornings sure get lonely
Ain’t got a whole lot of speed
I always seem to wake up feeling homely
Begging like a dog on a very short lead
I know it don’t mean that you don’t want to love me
But ain’t I got a right to shout
Baby don’t go
Or the wind turns the world upside down
And I end up
Standing in circles again
And spinning my whole world around
Well I can’t find a friend on whom I can
Depend or defend, and I’m down
I’ve been spending all my time in limbo
You know, but you go on
So lay low
No show until it’s gone
Spending all my time in limbo
You know, but you go on
Baby lay low
No show until it’s gone
Until it’s gone
Until it’s…
