The Detroit Cobras - 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 her head up Tears was streamin' down from her eyes Listen, these are the things That the little girl said When your love has ceased to be There's no other place for me (Ohhh) 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 fair 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 (Mmmm) Please take me baby for your slave (Oooh) And save me from an early grave Some people have it halfway fair Without your love I ain't nowhere And then sorrow struck my heart And tears began to stream down from my eyes Because the only woman that I ever loved in all my life Out here in a place like this and in a condition like she was 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, Well, I don't know just how I made Well I'm so glad our love is here Well I'm so glad our love is here
