Transcribed by Robert from Astlessons
[Intro]: x4
My mama said nothing would break me, or lead me astray
Who would have guessed, I'd let my mind drift so far away
You always said I was a dreamer, now it's dead
I'm dreaming of things that's making my mind go crazy, small things like
When I call you at home and he answers the phone
Or I get your machine and I don't hear me
When I lie in my bed with the thoughts in my head
When we danced and we sang and we laughed all night
Ooh da bop bop baby please don't let me go, can't live my life this way
Ooh da bop bop baby please just let me know, and put my mind at ease for sure
On a love train, twenty odd years now, I got off today
But nobody said the stop that I've taken, was a stop too late
Now I'm alone I'm thinking of stupid hurtful small things like
When I call you at home and he answers the phone
Or I get your machine and I don't hear me
When I lie in my bed with the thoughts in my head
When we danced and we sang and we laughed all night
Ooh da bop bop baby please don't let me go, can't live my life this way
Ooh da bop bop baby please just let me know, and put my mind at ease for sure
Maybe it's time to say goodbye, maybe it's time to let this lie
This is when we must set things right
Now that we've gone our separate ways, I just can't live these desperate days
This is what I've been trying to say
Ooh da bop bop baby please don't let me go, can't live my life this way
Ooh da bop bop baby please just let me know, just let me know
Ooh da bop bop baby please don't let me go, can't live my life this way
Ooh da bop bop baby please just let me know, please don't let me go
Ooh da bop bop baby please don't let me go, can't live my life this way
Ooh da bop bop baby please just let me know, put my mind at ease for sure
Ooh da bop bop baby please don't let me go, can't live my life this way
Ooh da bop bop baby please just let me know, and put my mind at ease for sure
