Practically Newborn
[Verse 1]
Runnin', hidin', runnin', hidin' myself
From a bad and sad kinda hurt, it ain't gonna work, oh no
Alibi'n, I've been tryin' to make believe
I could leave love alone, heart made of stone

[Pre-Chorus]
Take love, why not?
Give all the love that I got
But I never could before
You opened up my door

[Chorus]
Practically newborn, least that's the way I feel
Practically newborn, I got me somethin' real
Anything you want, baby, you know I'll do, yeah
Practically newborn, practically born for you

[Verse 2]
Me, I found me a road, take me out of my doubt and my fears
I said goodbye to tears, stay around me, baby
Stay around me when I can't forget
What I let get me down, look what I've found

[Pre-Chorus]
Take love, why not?
Give all the love that I got
But I never could before
You opened up my door
[Chorus]
Practically newborn, least that's the way I feel
Practically newborn, I got me somethin' real
Anything you want, baby, you know I'll do, yeah
Practically newborn, practically born for you

[Chorus]
Practically newborn, least that's the way I feel
Practically newborn, I got me somethin' real
Anything you want, baby, you know I'll do, yeah
Practically newborn, practically born for you
