Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Gon' on away from my window
Leave at your own chosen speed
I ain't the one you want, baby
I don't think I'm the one you need
[Verse 2]
You tell me you're lookin' for someone
Whose never weak, but always strong
To stand up and defend you
Whether you're right or wrong
[Verse 3]
Somebody that'll open every door
But it ain't me babe
No, no, no, it ain't me babe
It ain't me baby, you're lookin' for
[Verse 4]
Gon' on lightly from the ledge, baby
Go lightly to the ground
I ain't the one you want, baby
I won't do nothin' but let you down
[Verse 5]
You tell me you're lookin' for someone
Someone who'll promise never to part
Someone to close her eyes for ya
Somebody to open up your heart
[Verse 6]
Somebody who'll die for you and more
But it ain't me, baby
No, no, no, no, it ain't me, baby
I ain't the one you're lookin' for, baby
[Verse 7]
Gon' on mill back into the night, baby
Everything inside me is made of stone
There ain't nothin' in here movin'
And anyway, I ain't alone
[Verse 8]
You say you're lookin' for somebody
Who'll pick you up every time you fall
To gather flowers constantly
And come each time you call
[Verse 9]
A lover for your, a lover for your life and more
But it ain't me baby
No-no-no-no-no, it ain't me, baby
It ain't me baby, it ain't me, baby
[Verse 10]
It ain't me baby
No-no-no-no-no
No-no-no-no-no
No baby
Ain't me baby
I ain't who ya lookin' for
No-no-no-no-no
No, baby
