Baby Don't Leave Me Alone With My Thoughts

Hard times, hard times

When I really need somebody to hold me tight

And tell me I'm strong

Last night, last night

You were really there for me, so thank you

For playing along

But I gotta be honest with you, baby

This is not about love

I gotta be honest with you, baby

I'm not above using you

To get me through the night

Baby, don't leave me alone with my thoughts

I don't wanna get caught on the current of my mind

Baby, don't leave me alone with my thoughts, ooh, ooh, ooh

An old man, an old man

Has got his little hands on the button

Feels like nothing anyone can do, yeah

People out there crackin' up, crackin' up

And I'm just tryna keep it together

Notice that I feel better when I'm holdin' you

But I gotta be honest with you, baby

This is not about love

I gotta be honest with you, baby

You're here to help rid me of

The demons of the night

Baby, don't leave me alone with my thoughts

I don't wanna get caught on the current of my mind

Baby, don't leave me alone with my thoughts, ooh, ooh, ooh

Would you be my human shield?

Hold you so that I don't feel anything

Hold you so that I don't hear the ringing in my head

Baby, don't leave me alone with my thoughts, ooh, ooh, ooh

I don't wanna get caught on the current of my mind, ooh, ooh, ooh

Baby, don't leave me alone with my thoughts, I, I, I don't

Wanna get caught in the prison of the present time, ooh, ooh, ooh

Baby, don't leave me alone with my thoughts, ooh, ooh, ooh

Would you be my human shield?

Hold you up so I don't feel anything

Would you be my human shield?

Hold you so that I don't fear anything

Hold you so that I don't hear the ringing in my head

And in my heart
