come home baby

I don't care what you wear, what you bare
what you share with another man
I don't care where you stay, how you play
please understand
I don't care what you shake, what you fake
just get what you can
but when it's time to come home baby
please don't leave me waiting
you wear it well, one can tell
that you know what to do with it
you let it land where it will, oh yeah
and I better get used to it
you're not too shy to use it
I got the film to prove it
now you know what it's like to be free
you being free doesn't worry me, oh no
what more can you do after all I've seen
it's time to come home baby
please don't leave me waiting

being there
03:57
|

I can see a light on down the hall
and the sordid nature of it all
I know there must be life beyond these walls
though I would surely answer if you called
but I can't play that game again
where you pretend to care
as if it meant much more to you
than just being there
it's a shame it had to end this way
and I'm afraid there's nothing left to say
all we can do is leave the way we came
or try to make it last just one more day
but I can't play that game again
where you pretend to care
as if it meant much more to you
than just being there
seasons past and seasons gone
now you're back again where you don't belong
we could talk the time before the fall
but only this and nothing more
'cause I won't play that game again
where you pretend to care
it never meant much more to you
than just being there

now is the time
03:18
|

|
how many times do I have to tell you
the good life isn't free
educate yourself or sell yourself,
or just stay here with me
I can give you a heart that's true
something old, that's nothing new
I can show you riches galore, for
somebody else we gotta leave him at the door
now is the time to make up your mind
to settle or to flee
elevate yourself, sell yourself
or go with number three
I never promised you the impossible
the pay is bad and the hours are terrible
that leaves us with the merely improbable
a thing that could be so much more valuable
when it's time to hit rewind
to find out what went wrong
we may see that the answer lies
within this very song
repeat second chorus

what's your name
03:19

what's your name x2
names don't count for much
they can't replace the touch
some would say that it's even a crime
to let a name spoil a good time
you and me could someday be
part of the same family
so you should treat me nice and
love me twice today
there ain't no shame x2
in wanting you so bad
wanna wanna wanna meet your dad
let's have just a little taste
don't let it all go to waste
what's your game x2
I'd like to play it too
I'd like to play with you
we could stay up late and sing
and talk about anything

you make me nervous when you're around
so I hide behind a frown
and do my best to not break down
but I know it's just no use
avoiding you, though I know I should
'cause the very sound of your voice
gives me hope where there is none
that I could be the only one you need
a silly dream
I feel your eyes looking right through me
as if they already knew me
and what you mean to me
you see a fool standing before you
one who completely adores you
one who cries each night for you
and it's worse when you're not there
reminding me, but you don't care to know
how far I'd go
to fill your heart as you fill mine
to be with you in times of strife and sorrow
with no regard for tomorrow
I feel your eyes looking right through me
as if they already knew me
and what you mean to me
you see a fool standing before you
one who completely adores you
one who cries each night for you

leaving
03:35
|

|
I don't know what's yours and what is mine
I came here with nothing I'm leaving nothing behind
you laughed when I fell you think you know me so well
but one thing's for sure and I will never tell
here I set before you
a heart grown cold
the rest of me is leaving
before I'm too old
I'm not gonna test my luck with you again tonight
I'll make a new start a new chance at life
maybe I'll find more than I bargained for
maybe I'll find just what I'm looking for
here I set before you
a heart grown cold
the rest of me is leaving
before I'm too old
