Stop Before I Cry

I know that I'm not perfect Just like I know you are wild I know that though we're both grown up I still feel like a child inside And I wanna go out dancing Soon as the world returns 'Cause baby, when you're dressed up Well, it's hard to find the words And if you look into my soul And you told me what you see You'd say I see the mirror That you put in front of me Oh, don't take me to the start No, I want to go forward Baby, if we part Katie, if I hide Then I can live in your songs forever And you can live in mine 'Cause Katie when you sing to me It's like a melody-e-e Comin' off the mountain Comin' out the sea-e-e Stoppin' at the plains Up into a Mеmphis sky Katie, stop the song now Stop beforе I cry Stop before I cry Stop before I cry Stop before I cry Stop before I cry And you know they'll feed us fruit Right before they suck our blood Yeah, they'll fill us up with sugar While they drag us through the mud And it's hard to find the freedom That we feel when we're asleep 'Cause right now I am wide awake Always stuck inside a dream And I know that you got secrets And you know I got them too 'Cause you've seen me ride a nightmare, honey And you taught me how to shoot Oh, remember when we met How we were so young You were still suckin' on a bottle Like it was suckin' on God's thumb But from stage, you would take flight And whistle like a songbird While swayin' in a blue dress You'd turn the crowd into a big mess 'Cause Katie when you sing to me It's like a melody-e-e Comin' off the mountain Comin' out the sea-e-e Stoppin' at the plains Up into a Memphis sky Katie, stop the song now Stop before I cry Stop before I cry Stop before I cry Stop before I cry Stop before I cry You can get lost forever When your heart is a desert And you can lose your mind When it's stormin' all the time But I wanna go out dancing Soon as the world returns 'Cause, Katie, when you're dressed up, honey Oh, it's hard to find the words
