(skip ewing/donny kees)
I wanna be honest, baby
Ive still got a love left in my heart
But Im fallin apart
I didnt know how to say it
Or exactly where to start
I dont wanna be your shadow
Moving only where you move
I wanna be somebodys baby
Not somebodys fool
You take my love for granted
And sometimes act like you dont care
And that isnt fair
cause we started out together
Dreamin a dream for us to share
I thought we were the exception
But youre breaking all the rules
I wanna be somebodys baby
Not somebodys fool
I always thought that love was all I needed
But now I know I need some things to change
I dont want to go as far as leaving
So for gods sake, make it easier to stay
I wanna be honest, baby
Ive still got a love left in my heart
Im just falling apart
I didnt know how to say it
But at least Ive made a start
The cards are laid out on the table
Tell me what else can I do
I wanna be somebodys baby
Not somebodys fool
I wanna be somebodys baby
Not somebodys fool
