:: hey baby, thanks ::
look baby, I have been wounded
nearly bled dry, my skin tattered
hey baby, you have burned me
oh, my very being sadly shattered
yes, baby, you have torn me apart
ripped out my still-beating heart
burning fever on a cold night
I turn and twist, going insane
telling me you think you are right
always anticipating, my soul berating
you have badly burned me, baby
I stood by your side, never left to hide
hey baby, you have torn me apart
you have ripped me to shreds
and still, my love stayed for you
you knew you could not take it
then the guilt sets in, you left me too
you gave up on the dream, yes you did
you really quit the dream, oh, yes you did
baby, you could not take it, my love
stronger than you, baby, you could not take it
baby, you had to get up, to walk away and quit
I have been your doormat, with open arms
you have trod my heart, again and again, yet
again and again, then you left me there hanging
at the door, waiting with open arms
always anticipating, my soul berating
you have badly burned me, baby
I stood by your side, never left to hide
look baby, I have been wounded
nearly bled dry, my skin tattered
hey baby, you have burned me
oh, my very being sadly shattered
yes, baby, you have torn me apart
ripped out my still-beating heart
years have gone by and I look back
if you think I have forgotten,
that is where you are wrong
hey baby, have I told you this?
I will remember the good, and bad
the things you did to me, awakening
I got to thank you, for burning me
hey baby, I have to thank you,
I got to thank you, you simply quit
hey baby, I have to thank you,
I got to thank you, I want to live
hey baby, I have to thank you,
I got to thank you, I will not be waiting
hey baby, I have to thank you
that I will not welcome you again.
