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 warmth, 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!

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
