Long John Baldry - Insane Asylum lyrics

I went out to the insane asylum And I found my baby out there I said "Please come back to me darlin' What in the world are you doin' here?" Then the little girl raised up her head Tears was streamin' down from her eyes And these are the things That the little girl said "When your love has ceased to be (Lord have mercy) There's no other place for me (Mmm mmm) If you don't hold me in your arms (Oh child oh child) I'd rather be here from now on" "Some people have it halfway fare Without your love I ain't nowhere" "Oh I can't eat and I can't sleep (Oh child oh child) Lord I can't even live in peace (Mmm mmm) Please take me baby for your slave (Oh oh) And save me from that early grave" "Some people have it halfway fare Without your love I ain't nowhere" And then sorrow struck my heart Tears began to stream down from my eyes The only woman that I ever loved in all my life Out here in a place in a condition like this And I began to thinkin' about What my mama told me when I was a little boy She told me when I couldn't help myself To get down on my knees and pray Then I fell down on my knees And these are the words that I said "Save me save me save me, babe Save me save me save me, dear Whoa, I don't know just how I made it But I'm so glad our love is here But I'm so glad our love is here But I'm so glad our love is here"
