Lyrics to It Ain't Me Babe
Lyrics to the song It Ain't Me Babe as recorded by Bryan Ferry.
(Dylan)
Go away from my window
Leave at your own chosen speed
I'm not the one you want babe
I'm not the one you need
You say you're lookin' for someone
Never weak, but always strong
To protect you and defend you
Whether you are right or wrong
Someone to open each and every door
But it ain't me babe
No, no, no
It ain't me babe
It ain't me that you're looking for babe
Go lightly from the ledge babe
Go lightly on the ground
I'm not the one you want babe
I will only let you down
You say you're lookin' for someone
Who will promise never to part
Someone to close his eyes for you
Someone to close his heart
Someone who will die for you and more
But it ain't me babe
No, no, no
It ain't me babe
It ain't me that you're looking for babe
Go melt back in to the night babe
Everything inside is made of stone
There's nothin' in here that's a moving
And anyway I'm not alone
You say you're lookin' for someone
Who'll pick you up each time you fall
To gather flowers constantly
And to come each time you call
A lover for your life and nothing more
But it ain't me babe
No, no, no
It ain't me babe
It ain't me you're looking for babe
It Ain't Me Babe
