Who Needs You Baby
Breaking Free: Escaping Heartache and Pain
Lyrics
So long, see you around
Expressing farewell, saying goodbye.
Seen all I wanna see of this town
Have experienced everything I want to in this town.
I'm out of time and I'm out of tears
Feeling a sense of urgency and having no more tears left.
Out of my mind and I'm out of here
Feeling mentally exhausted and deciding to leave.
Who needs the heartache baby who needs the pain
Rhetorical question, questioning the need for heartache and pain.
Who needs to hang around and take the blame
Questioning the value of staying and taking blame in a relationship.
Who needs a woman to make him blue
Questioning the necessity of a woman causing sadness.
Who needs you baby - I do
Expressing a contradictory desire for the person despite the hardships.
Why are you wearing that negligee
Questioning the purpose of wearing seductive clothing.
Sure makes it hard to walk away
Admitting difficulty in leaving due to the allure of the other person.
I gotta go I can't take this abuse
Deciding to leave to avoid further mistreatment.
Why are you smiling would I lie to you
Questioning the sincerity of the other person's smile.

Filling my head full of doubts

Tell me just what you think you've got
