Hey they say you devastate
And I'm going to back them up
I was warned, wasn't I?
Warned, wasn't I about you
Lay so low
Just lay real low
When he wonders off no one will know
I was warned, wasn't I?
Warned wasn't I?
Warned wasn't I about it

But I don't listen well to anyone but you
And what I should've known is never what I'll do

So come on, baby, devastate me
Leave me hanging and waiting
Come on baby, devastate me
Get me just where you never wanted me
Then run, run, run away
Oh run, run, run away
Run away

Blame they say, so paper-mache
Taking time to settle in
Oh when we started, so half-hearted
Weren't you?
Just let him be, they say, just let him be
Can't you see he's a broken man?
Not fit to fight
For wrong or right
When it comes to you

But I don't listen well to anyone but him
And when he said I loved you
I thought we could begin

So come on, baby, devastate me
Leave me hanging and waiting
Come on baby, devastate me
Get me just where you never wanted me
Then run, run, run away
Oh run, run, run away
Run away
