Getting Late (Live At The House Of Blues, New Orleans / 2003)

Baby
Ooh baby
Baby, baby
Ooh, um baby
Oh, baby

We need to, umm (baby)
Talk about where we're taking this thing
How far we're gonna let this go
We've been here before
It's getting late

It's getting late
Why you gotta be here?
Beside me 
Watching, needing, wanting me
I'm afraid (don't be)
I'm afraid (don't be)
I'm so scared that you'll hurt me, twice 
Baby

Listen (oh, baby)
I've already been thinking about you, on my mind (ooh, baby)
Far too often for you to be here at this time 
See, one hands on nine and the other's on my thigh (ooh, baby, ooh, baby)
Look, I already played with the idea of you 
Being here in the morning 
The position for the crack of dawn 
And the conversations before the yawning 
But uh, it's getting late, it's getting late

It's getting late
Why you gotta be here?
Beside me
Watching, needing, wanting me
But I'm afraid, (you say) don't be
But I'm afraid, (you say) don't be (don't be)
I'm so scared that you'll hurt me twice
Oh baby

How's about I let you touch the space
That you left behind
The day that you stop smiling
The day that the tears started falling 
But now were talking, touching (mm, babe)
Almost making sensual again 
You can taste the familiar
'Cause, the family are supportive
Of this moment, but was led by the movements 'cause ah 
It's getting late (baby)

It's getting late
Why you gotta be here?
Beside me
Watching, needing, wanting me
But I'm afraid (you say) don't be
But I'm afraid (you say) don't be
I'm so scared that you'll hurt me twice 
Oh baby, baby, baby
Oh baby, twice, baby baby

Ooh, baby, baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby
Ooh baby, baby, baby, baby
Ooh

I see the memories we replayed
Same space, face, bodies
I know there's a method to your manliness
But ah, I'm afraid

It's getting late
Why you gotta be here, ooh?
Beside me
Watching, needing, wanting me
But I'm afraid, you say don't be
But I'm afraid, and you say don't be
I'm afraid that you're gonna hurt me baby, baby twice baby
Ooh, baby baby baby, twice, baby
Oh baby, baby

I see the memories replayed, same space, same face
Same bodies, baby, I know there's a method to your manliness
But I'm afraid, babe (I'm afraid)
I see the memories replayed (I see, yeah), same space, same face (same faces)
Same bodies, baby, I know there's a method to your manliness
(I'm afraid) but I'm afraid, baby

Yeah, yeah
I'm afraid, baby don't hurt me
I'm about to cry
I'm about to, all mine, babe
Please don't hurt me, baby
I'm afraid, baby
Please don't hurt me, baby
I'm afraid, babe
Don't hurt me, baby
Please don't hurt me
I'm afraid babe
Please don't hurt me babe
I'm afraid, now
afraid, afraid, afraid, I'm afraid
