Lay Low

When you go away
it tries my patience
Ain't got a whole lot of time
I always seem to end up
standing at the station
crying to the end of the line
I know you don't own
nothing of me
or want to
but ain't I got a right to say -
Baby don't go
or the wind and the world
slip away
And I end up
standing in circles again
and spinning my whole world around
Well I can't find a friend
on whom I can depend or defend
and I'm down
I been spending all my time in limbo
You know, but you go on
so lay low
No show until it's gone
Empty bed mornings
sure get lonely
Ain't got a whole lot of speed
I always seem to wake up
feeling homely
Begging like a dog
on a very short lead
I know it don't mean
that you don't want to love me
but ain't I got a right to shout -
Baby don't go
or the wind turns the world
upside down
(Chorus)
