Please baby can't you see my mind's a burnin' hell
I got razors a rippin' and tearin' and strippin' my heart apart as well
Tonight you told me that you ache for something new
And some other woman is lookin' like something that might be good for you
Go on and hold her till the screaming is gone
Go on believe her when she tells you nothing's wrong
But I'm the only one who'll walk across the fire for you
I'm the only one who'll drown in my desire for you
It's only fear that makes you run
The demons that you're hiding from
When all your promises are gone I'm the only one
Please baby can't you see I'm trying to explain
I've been here before and I'm locking the door And I'm not going back again
Her eyes and arms and skin won't make it go away
You'll wake up tomorrow and wrestle the sorrow that holds you down today
Go on and hold her till the screaming is gone
Go on believe her when she tells you nothing's wrong
But I'm the only one who'll walk across the fire for you
I'm the only one who'll drown in my desire for you
It's only fear that makes you run
The demons that you're hiding from
When all your promises are gone I'm the only one
