Lay Low

When you go away, it tries my patience

I 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

I can't find a friend on whom I can

depend or defend, and I'm down

I've 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

And I end up

standing in circles again

and spinning my whole world around

I can't find a friend on whom I can

depend or defend, and I'm down

I've been spending all my time in limbo

You know, but you go on,

so lay low - no show until it's gone

Spending all my time in limbo

You know, but you go on

so lay low

No show until it's gone

Until it's gone

Until it's...
