Lyrics

From a whisper in the wind to a loud, loud scream A message came that I'd lost you All to the warmth of another woman For heaven sakes, baby, I'm begging you, just don't leave me I've seen more tears fall from your eyes Than all the showers of April I took kindness for granted As if it came with the wallpaper Lord, so inconsiderate of how much you cared For some stupid reason I just thought you had to be there Oh my love, oh my love, oh my love Baby, baby, baby, please don't leave me I'm begging you, I'm on my knees now, baby I simply must have been crazy I must have been out of my mind To over look the need in you Lord, how could I have been so blind? Lord, Lord, never giving thoughts to your wants and needs But now I'm begging, baby, please, please, please Oh my love, oh my love, oh my love I'm begging you my love Hey, so inconsiderate of how much you cared For some stupid reason I just thought you had to be there Oh my love, oh my love, oh my love Talking about my love Never giving thoughts to your wants and needs Now I'm begging you, baby, please, please, please Oh my love, my love, my love Baby, just don't leave me now Oh my love, oh my love Oh my love, oh my love
