Melissa Etheridge - I'm The Only One (Live From Topeka Correctional Facility) Lyrics

Baby, I'm the only one
Baby, I'm the only one

Please, baby, can't you see
My mind's a burnin' hell
I got razors a-rippin' and tearin' and strippin'
My heart apart as well
Tonight you told me
That you ache for something new
And some other woman is looking like somethin'
That might be good for you

Go on and hold her 'til the screaming is gone
Go on, believe her when she tells you nothing's wrong

But I'm the only one
Who'll walk across the fire for you
And I'm the only one
Who'll drown in my desire for you
Only fear that makes you run
The demons that you're hiding from
When all your promises are gone
I'm the only one

Please, baby can't you see
I'm trying to explain
I have been here before and I'm locking the door
And I'm not going back again
Her eyes and arms and skin won't make it go away
You'll wake up tomorrow and wrestle the sorrow
That holds you down today

Go on and hold her 'til the screaming is gone
Go on, believe her when she tells you nothing's wrong, yeah

But I'm the only one
Who'll walk across the fire for you
And I'm the only one
Who'll drown in my desire for you
Only fear that makes you run
The demons that you're hiding from
When all your promises are gone
I'm the only one

Go on and hold her 'til the screaming is gone
Go on, believe her when she tells you nothing's wrong

But I'm the only one
Who'll walk across the fire for you
And I'm the only one
Who'll drown in my desire for you
Only fear that makes you run
The demons that you're hiding from
When all your promises are gone
I'm the only one

Baby, I'm the only one, yeah
Didn't know I cold do this, here we go

I'm the only one, yeah

Here we go, here we go, come on

I'm the only one
Who'll walk across the fire for you
And I'm the only one
Who'll drown in my desire for you
Only fear that makes you run
The demons that you're hiding from
When all your promises are gone

I might have f*cked things up (I might have f*cked things up)
I might have f*cked things up (I might have f*cked things up)
I might have f*cked things up (I might have f*cked things up)
But I can break the chain (but I can break the chain)
'Cause I am the only one
