Take these tears from my heart Shelter me from the storm The wind has blown away my scarf Gather me babe... safe and warm My eyes have seen experience The thieves stole my love And sold it for a clearance price Oh, babe... I need a velvet glove I have spent all my time Searching for the perfect man Now... I find no one to hold my hand You weaved me in your colored web Shot my love inside your veins You chose her time instead Left me standing in the rain I even got down on my knees But you won't see the tears I cried Baby... I even begged you, please You looked me in my eyes and lied In your eyes, I saw the fear Your big excuse for running wild That's when I want to pull you near And hold you like a little child She doesn't love you she only wants to put down She doesn't love you- she only wants to put you on the ground You're having an affair with an addiction You're reaching the point of no hope You're having an affair with an addiction You've got your spoon and your dope Let her go set us free-let her go set us free Let her go set us free-let her go set us free
