Song lyrics

She got out of town

On a railway, New York bound

Took all except my name

Another alien out on Broadway


There's some things in this world

You just can't change

Some things you can't see

Until it gets too late


And baby, baby, baby

When all your love is gone, who will save me

From all I'm up against out in this world?

And maybe, maybe, maybe

You'll find somethin' that's enough to keep you

But if the bright lights don't receive you

You should turn yourself around and come on home


I got a hole in me now

Yeah, I got a scar I can talk about

She keeps a picture of me

In her apartment in the city


Some things in this world

Man, they don't make sense

Some things you don't need

Until they leave you

And they're things that you miss, you say


Baby, baby, baby

When all your love is gone

Who will save me

From all I'm up against out in this world?

And maybe, maybe, maybe

You'll find somethin' that's enough to keep you

But if the bright lights don't receive you

You should turn yourself around and come on home


Let that city take you in (come on home)

Let that city spit you out (come on home)

Let that city take you down

For God's sake, turn around


Baby, baby, baby

When all your love is gone

Who will save me

From all I'm up against out in this world?

Yeah, well, maybe, maybe, maybe

You'll find somethin' that's enough to keep you

But if the bright lights don't receive you

Turn yourself around and come on home


Yeah, come on home

Maybe, maybe, baby, baby

Come on home

Yeah, come on home

Come on home

Come on home
