Wasting my time
A shadow on the riverbank
Watching my reflection go to seaWind in my hair
I could be most anywhere
But I do not care to know
Not where I standBaby, i`ve been lost without you
Since I don`t have a place to call my home
Oh, my sweet baby, must I empty my heart?
Must I take what I can get and make it my own?
As long as I love my baby
I`m only lonelyShe said not to call
Said it would be best for all concerned
If I just all but disappear
She loves you best
And I love her nonetheless
So I just listen to the voice on the machine, singingBaby, i`ve been lost without you
Since I don`t have a place to call my home
Oh, my sweet baby, must I empty my heart?
Must I take what I can get and call it my own?
As long as I love my baby
I`m only lonelyMaybe one day she`ll call me up and say
"god damn you your baby`s crying
And i`m lonely, come home"
Maybe i`ll find some guts someplace and drive up
And you`ll be there playing on the porch and she`ll
Just say
"baby, where you been? "
And "ain`t your little man growing? "
A pain in my mind
A shadow on the riverbank
Watching my reflection go to seaBaby, i`ve been lost without you
Since I don`t have a place to call my home
Oh, my sweet baby, must I empty my heart?
Must I take what I can get and make it my home?
As long as I love my baby
I`m only lonely
