Maybe I'm Amazed
Rod Stewart · Other Songs - Rod Stewart
All right, here's one you may well know, you may not know it
And if you don't know it, I really don't know where you've been,
So you should know the tune. here we go!
Maybe I'm amazed at the way you love me all the time
Maybe I'm afraid of the way I'll leave you
Baby, I'm amazed at the way you fool me all the time
You hung me on a line
Oh baby, I'm amazed at the way I really need you
Baby, I'm a man, oh baby, I'm a lonely man who's in the middle of something
That he doesn't really understand
Baby, I'm a man, oh baby, you're the only woman that could ever help me
Baby, won't you try to understand
Baby, I'm a man, oh baby, I'm a lonely man who's in the middle of something
That he does not really understand - good god, hoo
Baby, I'm a man, oh baby, you're the only one that could ever help me
Baby, won't you try to understand
Baby, I'm amazed at the way you're with me all the time
Baby, I'm afraid of the way I'll leave ya'
Baby, I'm amazed at the way you help me sing the song
You right me when I'm wrong
Baby I'm amazed at the way I really need ya'
Baby, I'm a man, oh baby, I'm a lonely man who's in the middle of something
That he does not really understand
Baby, I'm a man, oh baby, you're the only woman that could ever help me
Baby, won't you try to understand
There you go, heh
Baby I'm amazed, the way I really need you
Alright. just about warming up and getting into it right about here.
