Written by John Mellencamp |
|
I bring you renegade stories |
|
And you tell me I'm crazy and wild |
|
You say that I lack maturity |
|
Stop actin' like a child |
|
But you know I am a liar |
|
And my promises only get in my way |
|
You feel so good, when you're in my arms |
|
Ain't there one right thing I can say |
|
To make oyu want to stay |
|
Chorus: |
|
Oh, oh baby, baby |
|
Don't misunderstand me |
|
oh, oh baby, baby |
|
You tell me that you love me but |
|
This ain't no way for you to live |
|
You hold so tight your fingers are broken |
|
I take more than I care to give |
|
But it's heartbeat to heartbeat |
|
It's push and shove and steal and prove |
|
It's hand to mouth sometimes |
|
If we run hard enough someday baby |
|
Gonna find some room to move |
|
Chorus |
|
All of this showin' and provin' |
|
Is nothing but fear |
|
Everybody can do what they want |
|
But they just can't do it here |
|
Girl hold on to my childishness |
|
I'm gonna break on through |
|
Out of this mess |
|
Chorus |
