Come on now can we talk about it like we used to talk about Hotel in the hills with a carousel Farmhouse in the front a tractor in the lounge Oh oh oh honey I need you round I know I know Listen now can we talk in love and walk the town Be easy now, go hiking through the hills in a summer gown Raise the kids, peace within and make our sound Hear me now, I'm down on knees and praying Though my faith is weak Without you so please baby please give us a chance Make a mends and I will stand until the end A million times a trillion more Oh oh oh honey I need you round I know I know Smile baby don't cry I will only fly with you by my side Baby I'm cornered now Baby don't push me out Lately I walk in doubt Maybe it's crashing down Baby can you save it now Oh oh oh honey I need you round I know I know Oh oh oh honey I need you round I know I know Baby I'm cornered now Baby don't push me out Lately I walk in doubt Maybe it's crashing down Baby I'm cornered now Baby don't push me out Lately I walk in doubt Maybe it's crashing down
