I wanna be honest, baby
I`ve still got a love left in my heart
But I`m fallin` apart
I didn`t know how to say it
Or exactly where to start
I don`t wanna be your shadow
Moving only where you move
I wanna be somebody`s baby
Not somebody`s fool
You take my love for granted
And sometimes act like you don`t care
And that isn`t fair
`Cause we started out together
Dreamin` a dream for us to share
I thought we were the exception
But you`re breaking all the rules
I wanna be somebody`s baby
Not somebody`s fool
I always thought that love was all I needed
But now I know I need some things to change
I don`t want to go as far as leaving
So for God`s sake, make it easier to stay
I wanna be honest, baby
I`ve still got a love left in my heart
I`m just falling apart
I didn`t know how to say it
But at least I`ve made a start
The cards are laid out on the table
Tell me what else can I do
I wanna be somebody`s baby
Not somebody`s fool
I wanna be somebody`s baby
Not somebody`s fool
