Don't be afraid of me I'm what you need I saw you on the screens I know we're meant to be You're starrin' in my dreams In magazines
You're lookin' right at me I'm here around the clock I'm waitin' on your block But please don't call the cops They'll make me stop And I just wanna talk
Bet I could change your life You could be my wife Could get into a fight I'll say you're right And you'll kiss me goodnight
I waited on the corner 'til I saw the sitter leave Was easy getting over and I landed on my feet I came in through the kitchen lookin' for something to eat I left a calling card so they would know that it was me
I tried to save you, but I failed Two fifty thousand-dollar bail (two hundred fifty thousand-dollar) While I'm away, don't read my mail (don't read my mail) Just bring a veil (just bring a veil) And come visit me in jail (visit me in jail)
I'll go back to the diner I'll write another letter (I'll write another letter) I hope you'll read it this time You better
The cops around the corner stopped me when I tried to leave They told me I was crazy, and they knocked me off my feet (they told me I was crazy) They came in through the kitchen lookin' for something discrete I left a calling card so they would know that it was me
(Ah, ah, know that it was me)
I memorized your number, now I call you when I please I tried to end it all, but now I'm back up on my feet I saw you in the car with someone else and couldn't sleep If somethin' happens to him, you can bet that it was me
