Lyrics

I should've known that it'd turn out bad
You ain't a girl to do things by half
I didn't mean for this crazy love
To come swooping down and swallow us up
I guess I could've been like every other man
And not give a damn that women hurt so bad
I'm sitting here trying to make some peace within my mind
With a late movie flickering back and forth across my eyes
Oh, the nights are so long
And Katie's leaving Babylon
I should've known the girl was not that strong
Katie's leaving Babylon
Katie's leaving Babylon
I didn't count on such a long, long trip
I took your love and never paid for it
It's too late now to think about a woman's pride
'Cause Katie's past thinking about suicide
All of a sudden you know that axe comes down
Before you even think about a turnaround
Women need loving more than we can understand
But hey, don't get down about it, just do the best that you can
Oh, the nights are so long
And Katie's leaving Babylon
I should've known the girl was not that strong
Katie's leaving Babylon
Katie's leaving Babylon
Oh, the nights are so long
And Katie's leaving Babylon
I should've known the girl was not that strong
Katie's leaving Babylon
Katie's leaving Babylon
Katie's leaving Babylon
Katie's leaving Babylon
Katie's leaving Babylon
Katie's leaving Babylon
Katie's leaving Babylon
Katie's leaving Babylon
Katie's leaving Babylon
Katie's leaving Babylon
Katie's leaving Babylon
