Love Ridden Lyrics - When The Pawn Hits - Fiona Apple

Love ridden, I've looked at you 

With the focus I gave to my birthday candles 

I've wished on the lidded blue flames 

Under your brow 

And baby, I wished for you 

Nobody sees when you are lying in your bed 

And I wanna crawl in with you 

But I cry instead 

I want your warm, but it will only make 

Me colder when it's over 

So I can't tonight, baby 

No, not baby anymore - if I need you 

I'll just use your simple name 

Only kisses on the cheek from now on 

And in a little while, we'll only have to wave 

My hand won't hold you down no more 

The path is clear to follow through 

I stood too long in the way of the door 

And now I'm giving up on you 

No, not baby anymore - if I need you 

I'll just use your simple name 

Only kisses on the cheek from now on 

And in a little while, we'll only have to wave 

No, not baby anymore - if I need you 

I'll just use your simple name 

Only kisses on the cheek from now on 

And in a little while, we'll only have to wave
