The walls talk in anger,
as the wind sweeps my face.
My father left my mother,
my mother was disgraced.
I need a little life to go
My body's filled with pain
I need a little stroke of love
My eyes are filled with rain
Baby, stay for a little while
This is where you ought to be
Baby, stay for a little while
Please don't set me free
The walls talk in anger,
shadows of strangers appear,
Angry voices of violence,
piss my pride with fear.
I need a little laughter, girl
My body's filled with pain
I need a little stroke of love
My eyes are filled with rain
Baby, stay for a little while
This is where you ought to be
Baby, stay for a little while
Please don't set me free
Baby, stay for a little while
This is where you ought to be
Baby, stay for a little while
Please don't set me free
Please don't set me free
Please don't set me free
Please don't set me free you
