love ridden

Love ridden, I've looked at you with the focus I gave to my birthday candlesI've wished on the lidded, blue flames under your browand baby, I wished for you.
Nobody sees when you are lying in your bedand I wanna crawl in with you, but I cry insteadI want your warm, but it'll only make me colder when it's overSo I can't tonight, baby....NO, not "baby" anymore
I'll just use your simple nameOnly 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 moreThe path is clear to follow through
I stood too long in the way of the door...
and now I'm giving up on you.
