Paragraph Lyric
Baby, I couldn't hide
No matter how hard I tried
Was foolish to have begun
To believe I'd ever outrun

And honey, I had no call
To try and escape at all
'Cause by the time I got free
Love caught up to me

Baby, I used to have ways
To avoid anyplace
That even had half the chance
To cut in on my dance

Yeah, my cool heart hung around
Only if it couldn't be found
But showed up permanently
When love caught up to me

The fascinations of each lie
I told myself were reasons why
The feeble boast I made alone
Sound faded, worn and all outgrown

--- Instrumental ---

Hey, I could never afford
Honey, all it would cost
To replace what you do
If it ever got lost

But baby, I'd beg and steal
Just to keep how I feel
A way I never did need
'Til love caught up to me

The fascinations of each lie
I told myself were reasons why
The feeble boast I made alone
Sound faded, worn and all outgrown

Baby, I couldn't hide
No matter how hard I tried
Was foolish to have begun
To believe I'd ever outrun

And honey, I had no call
To try and escape at all
'Cause by the time I got free
Love caught up to me

Yeah, by the time I got free
Love caught up to me...
