Ever since I met you, baby,
I've been acting kinda strange.
I wake up in the morning,
Then without a warning,
All I do is scream your name, yeh.

Ev'rytime I look inside me,
I see the man that I've become.
You make me wanna holler
And jump right out my collar,
You've got me on the run, yeh.

Oo-wee, babe, oo-wee, yeh,
Friends don't recognise me,
They say you hypnotise me,
Oo, what you done to me, babe?
You drive me out of my sunsets, oo-wee.

She look just like the new Jean Harlow,

With sultry lips and long blonde hair.
They say she came from haites,
Or was it the Euphrates
That brought my lady here, yeh?

Oo-wee, babe, oo-wee, yeh,
Friends don't understand me,
They say you underhand me,
Oo, what you done to me, babe?
You drive me out of my senses, oo-wee, yeh.

When I walk into her parlour,
It's like the spider and the fly.
In the darkness she surrounds me,
And weaves her web around me,
And locks me up inside, yeh.

She look just like the new Jean Harlow,
With sultry lips and long blonde hair.

They say she came from haites,
Or was it the Euphrates
That brought my lady here, uh, uh?

Oo-wee, babe, oo-wee, yeh,
Friends don't understand me,
They say you underhand me,
Oo, what you done to me, babe?
You drive me out of my senses, oo-wee, yeh.

Oo-wee, babe, (oo-wee)
Oo-wee, babe, (oo-wee)
Oo-wee, babe, (oo-wee)
Oo-wee, babe. (oo-wee)
(oo-wee)

I looked out my window
And watched all the people go by.
I wonder what happens
And who's taking who for a ride.

(don't you know that I'm bound?)

I'm bound to pick up the pieces and watch them land.

I'm standing all by myself,
Ain't got nobody else,
All by myself,
I don't need nobody.

I work out my problems,
I'm starting all over again.
I just started smiling,
I'm making myself some new friends.
(don't you know I've got?)

I've got a brand new feeling I just can't hide.

I'm standing all by myself,
Ain't got nobody else, (to turn to)

All by myself,
I don't need nobody.

Way back in my mem'ry,
I can see where I've wasted my time.
You came and took what you wanted
And then tried to take what was mine.
(Well, don't you know I'm tired)

I'm tired of finding myself up against the wall, it's so tall.
I'm standing all by myself,
Ain't got nobody else, (to turn to)

All by myself,
I ain't got nobody.

(I'm standing) all by myself,
Ain't got nobody else, (nobody)
All by myself,
I ain't got nobody.

(i'm standing) all by myself,
Ain't got nobody else, (to talk to)
All by myself,
I don't need nobody.

(I'm standing) all by myself.

Call me, if you wanna see me,
Call me, if you still believe me.
'Cause I'm not gonna hide,
No, I'm not gonna hide from you.

If you still think you need me,
Like I do, I want you to feed me.
With your love, I'll be strong,
With your love, I'll be strong and carry on.

Don't be hurt by what you've seen, dear,
I know it's like a dream, dear.
Remember, I slept too,
Remember, I slept too with you.

It's time that we both went through it,
If we don't, then we know we'll blew it.
'Cause we've gotta give it a try,

Yeah, we've gotta give it a try, yeh, you and I.
We tried,
But we didn't make it.
Now we don't
Ever have to fake it.
Well, we'll go on our way,
Yeh, we'll go on our way, it's a brand new day.
Call me, if you wanna see me,
Call me,

If you wanna still be my friend.
You can call me,
If you wanna see me again.
Why don't you call me?

You can call me. (we tried, you know that we tried)
If you wanna still be my friend. (we tried, you know that we tried)
