Lyrics Sophie B. Hawkins

Sophie B. Hawkins

Gone Baby

Sleepy head wake up

Wipe the whiskey from your eyes

Turn and reach for me

Get hit with a surprise

My daddy didn't raise me

To get knocked around by you

Now all I have to show for love are eyes of black and blue

So I'm gone where you will never find me

Gone where I can start again

Gonna leave this lunacy behind me

Be my storie's heroine

Hey your gonna say

how crazy sorry you are

But you can tell your pretty words

to the dust of my car

'Cause I'm gone where you will never find me

Gone where I can start again

Gonna leave this lunacy behind me

Be my storie's heroine

Goin' where the sun's on my back

And my mind is in the wind

Gonna take this dance

Goin' to find a friend

Hit me once, shame on you

Shame on me if I wait for number two

Ain't exactly what you had planned?

Well you shoulda thought of that before you raised your hand

Darlin' times have changed

and a woman don't take her love in chains

Gonna be as free as I wanna be

Got my whole damn life in front of me

Gone where you will never find me

Gone where I can start again

Gonna leave this lunacy behind me

Be my storie's heroine

Goin' where the sun's on my back

And my mind is in the wind

And I'm stronger than I've never been before
