Lyrics
Pauline Hawkins
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Don't call me your baby
I won't answer
Love is like cancer
And I am immune
To all that you're bringing
The tune that you're singing
A sign of a locked room
I saw the locked room
It's such an illusion
Before the collision
I made a decision
Don't tell me your secrets
I'd rather not listen
I know what I'm missing
It's always too soon
It's always too soon to be cold for comfort
To belong to someone inside a locked room
But that always happens when nobody's looking (nobody's looking)
I really don't care what's inside you
I wont stand beside you or answer your calls
I don't want to fight now
I'm only here right now
This moment is all
This moment is all
Don't call me your baby
I'm nobody's baby
I won't let you cage me
Or lock me away
I'm not yours to keep
Don't want you to save me
You're just a vacation
A wonder way station
To keep me awake, until I'm ready to sleep
To keep me awake, until I'm ready to sleep
To keep me awake, until I'm ready to sleep
