"I'm The Only One"

(M. Etheridge)

Please baby can't you see 
My mind's a burnin' hell 
I got razors a rippin' and tearin' and strippin' 
My heart apart as well 
Tonight you told me 
That you ache for something new
And some other woman is lookin' like something 
That might be good for you 

chorus
Go on and hold her till the screaming is gone
Go on believe her when she tells you
nothing's wrong 
But I'm the only one 
Who'll walk across the fire for you
I'm the only one 
Who'll drown in my desire for you 
It's only fear that makes you run
The demons that you're hiding from 
When all your promises are gone 
I'm the only one 

Please baby can't you see 
I'm trying to explain 
I've been here before and I'm locking the door 
And I'm not going back again 
Her eyes and arms and skin won't make
it go away 
You'll wake up tomorrow and wrestle the sorrow 
That holds you down today

chorus
