Think my baby loves me ( version 2)



I think, my baby, loves me.
Not sure, what to say.
way she, lookin at me.
Tellin me, she wanna to stay.

I think, it’s a, tale to tell.
Even for today.
Tellin me ,somebody
Wanna stay.

There’s some spots, that I, need to see.
There’s some things, I need to know.
Creepin, in the darkness.
Are the things, she gonna show.

Way, back yonder.
She gonna, scream and moan.
Candles, all around ya.
And no where, else, to go.

I think, my baby, loves me.
Not sure, what to say.
Way she, lookin at me.
Tellin me, she wanna stay.

I think, it’s a , tale to tell.
Watch, everything, they say.
Listen closely, honey.
I won’t, make a mistake.

There’s some places, that I, need to go.
There’s some things, I need to see.
Comin into the light, now Babah.
Is the king.  

Way, back yonder.
She gonna, scream and moan.
Candles, all around ya.
And no where, Else, to call home.

Now babah, there’s some things
I need to see.
Into the light, now honey.
On , your,  knee’s.
Way,  back yonder, she gonna scream.

I think, my baby, loves me.
Not sure, what to say.
Way she, lookin at me.
Tellin me, she wanna stay.

No need ,to go, honey
It’s already, been taken away.
No need ,to worry, baby.
Cause, nothin’s , gonna be the same.
Tellin me, she wanna stay.
Yeah, way she look at me.
I think, my baby, loves me.
Not sure, what to say.
