Love ridden, I've looked at you   With the focus I gave to my birthday candles   I've wished on the lidded blue flames   Under your brow   And baby, I wished for you   Nobody sees when you are lying in your bed   And I wanna crawl in with you   But I cry instead   I want your warm, but it will only make   Me colder when it's over   So I can't tonight, baby   No, not baby' anymore - if I need you   I'll just use your simple name   Only 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 more   The path is clear to follow through   I stood too long in the way of the door   And now I'm giving up on you   No, not baby' anymore - if I need you   I'll just use your simple name   Only kisses on the cheek from now on   And in a little while, we'll only have to wave   No, not baby' anymore - if I need you   I'll just use your simple name   Only kisses on the cheek from now on   And in a little while, we'll only have to wave
