Baby said she loved me more than life itself
Told me it was destiny there was nobody else
On my heart I believed every word she said
Days and nights together spent in each others arms
Protected from the shadows we kept each other warm
Taking refuge in my big, brass bed
Baby and the bath water - don't throw the baby out
When you told me that you loved me Lord, I never had one doubt
Now I've found the truth out and I know what you're about
Momma told me there would be days like this
I would fight for your affection - I would have to steal your kiss
Precious is the love that you have betrayed
So now you must decide where to put your heart
And which one of us will be torn apart
Here I am and here I shall remain
