Stay Close to Me
I know you want me
By the strange way
That you kiss me
What was your reason
For the wise crack
That you made
If you knew you'd act this way
Why did you leave me, oh
Please stay close to me
You're from the upper class
You dislike long hair
Anyway, I know you do
I'm going to the barber shop
I reed the paper, just like you
Tomorrow morning, I swear to God
I'm gonna see if I can find a job
But please stay close to me
I realize the life I live
Is not the right thing to do
But how was I to know that someday
I'd meet someone like you
It isn't easy, I'll tryin' to kick
If you help me to
Oh my darling
You don't know how I need you
Lord...
There's a cold sweat, sweaping over me
Right now, oh, yes it is
I need a fix, wont somebody help me
Come to my rescue, oh yeah
Perhaps I'd still be stepping high
Had I not promised you that I would try
Oh, please stay close to me
There's a rough road to spleed out before me
Oh, yes it is
There's gonna be flashbacks of bad trips
All sommer long
You wouldn't force me to live like you
If you knew the agony that I am going through
Oh, please stay close to me
Oh, please stay close to me
Oh, please stay close to me...
By the strange way
That you kiss me
What was your reason
For the wise crack
That you made
If you knew you'd act this way
Why did you leave me, oh
Please stay close to me
You're from the upper class
You dislike long hair
Anyway, I know you do
I'm going to the barber shop
I reed the paper, just like you
Tomorrow morning, I swear to God
I'm gonna see if I can find a job
But please stay close to me
I realize the life I live
Is not the right thing to do
But how was I to know that someday
I'd meet someone like you
It isn't easy, I'll tryin' to kick
If you help me to
Oh my darling
You don't know how I need you
Lord...

Oh, please stay close to me
Oh, please stay close to me
Oh, please stay close to me...
