You use my love to quench your desire
You play with me, you play with fire
I'd give my heart to take you higher
This is my only one desire
We can't get along
And you won't come home
Yesterday, I caught you in his arms
Seducing him with all your charms
You know you really hurt me so
I need you and I won't let go
Can't get away, babe
Can't get along, mama
Can't get away, babe
Oh, you hurt me so
Ooh-ooh, babe
You got me cryin' in my sleep
I close my eyes, it's you I see
You're not with someone else, I know
My heart says not to let you go
Oh babe, my heart is stronger than my soul
You hurt my head down to my toes
I won't let go, you make me wild
You leave me girl, you know I'll die
Can't get away, babe
Can't let you go, mama
I can't get away, babe
Oh, you hurt me so
Can't get away, babe
Can't let you go, mama
Can't get away, babe
Oh, you hurt me so
Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
Lord help my soul
You hurt me so
You need me then you leave me, with no place to go
Lord help my soul
You hurt me so
You left me...
Can't get away, babe
You made it hurt
So deep in my soul
Oh no, no, no
Can't get away, babe
Can't get away, babe
Can't let you go, mama
Baby, you hurt me so
Can't get away, babe
Can't let you go, mama
Can't get away, babe
You hurt me so
Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
I'll be cryin' in my sleep
In my sleep
Oh, oh, baby
