I’m Your Babe, Not Your Baby
 
Pain of your words still linger.
Tear stains on my pillow won’t dry.
You beg to hold me one more time.
I pull away, then give in.
God, don’t ask me why.

[chorus]
I’m your babe, not your baby.
I’m your love, not no or maybe.
If I’m wrong, don’t tell me how.
I’ll be out the door, leaving now.

Our jealousies crash out of control,
Fueling our emotions to ignite.
You slam the door, and turn around.
We’re all about makeups,
But much better at fights.

​I'm your babe, not your baby.
I’m your future, not no or maybe.
If I’m wrong, don’t tell me how.
I’ll be out the door, leaving now.

​[bridge]
Spinning in circles, 'round and 'round.
Shouting your anger, such wasted sound.
I cry for calm, but it won’t last.
Knowing you inside-out, having lived our past.

You lean in close to kiss me.
And make a promise for a change.
I’m not sure which you to believe.
But I know time away,
Would open my cage.

I’m your babe, not your baby.
And you’re mine, not no or maybe.
If I’m wrong, don’t tell me how.
I’ll be out the door, leaving now.

I’m out the door...
I’m leaving now...
Leaving now...
