Set the children free I'm gonna cry cry cry Momma loves to work, Daddy loves to play Sometimes Daddy gotta go far away I'm too young to go quiet in the night Try to put me to sleep, I'm gonna give you a fight Wake you up a 5 am, before the sunrise I'll

I'm gonna love you Gonna love you Until you hate me What's really crazy You should've known better Then to mess with me, heartache Like a black widow, baby You used to be thirsty for me But now you wanna be set free

Kiss me like you're loving only me tonight Make me feel like it ain't over Go a little slower, baby, one last time It ain't the truth's gonna set me free Come on, come on, lie with me Lie with me, hold me like you need it Lie with me, hold me like you

You hold on to love that's gone Run a mile to see him smile But you don't know he's door to door playin' you for the fool Let him go, walk out your door And come to me I'm gonna set you free Now you look and there you go back to him, he's gonna do you in

I'm gonna love you Gonna love you Until you hate me What's really crazy You should've known better Then to mess with me, heartache Like a black widow, baby You used to be thirsty for me But now you wanna be set free
