"Please Call Me, Baby" lyrics

"Please Call Me, Baby"

The evening fell just like a star, left a trail behind
You spit as you slammed out the door
If this is love, we're crazy, as we fight like cats and dogs
I just know there's got to be more

Please call me, baby, wherever you are
It's too cold to be out walking in the streets
We do crazy things when we're wounded, everyone's a bit insane
I don't want you catching your death of cold out walking in the rain

I admit that I ain't no angel, I admit that I ain't no saint
I'm selfish and I'm cruel, but you're blind
If I exorcise my devils, well, my angels may leave too
When they leave, they're so hard to find

Please call me, baby, wherever you are
It's too cold to be out walking in the streets
We do crazy things when we're wounded, everyone's a bit insane
I don't want you catching your death of cold out walking in the rain

We're always at each others throats, you know, it drives me up the wall
Most of the time I'm just blowing off steam
And I wish to God you'd leave me, baby, I wish to God you'd stay
Life's so different than it is in your dreams

Please call me, baby, wherever you are
It's too cold to be out walking in the streets
We do crazy things when we're wounded, everyone's a bit insane
I don't want you catching your death of cold out walking in the rain
