Lyrics:

From Yes I Am (1993).
#1 on Adult Contemporary charts in January 1995.
Please, baby, can't you see
My mind's a burnin' hell
I got razors a-rippin' and tearin' and strippin'
My heart apart as well
Tonight you told me
That you ache for somethin' new
And some other woman is lookin' like somethin'
That might be good for you

Go on and hold her 'til the screamin' is gone
Go on, believe her when she tells you nothing's wrong

But I'm the only one
Who'll walk across a fire for you
And I'm the only one
Who'll drown in my desire for you
It's only fear that makes you run
The demons that you're hiding from
When all your promises are gone
I'm the only one

Please, baby, can't you see
I'm tryin' to explain
I've been here before and I'm lockin' the door
And I'm not goin' back again
Her eyes and arms and skin
Won't make it go away
You'll wake up tomorrow and wrestle the sorrow
That holds you down today

Go on and hold her 'til the screamin' is gone
Go on, believe her when she tells you nothing's wrong

But I'm the only one
Who'll walk across a fire for you
And I'm the only one
Who'll drown in my desire for you
It's only fear that makes you run
The demons that you're hiding from
When all your promises are gone
I'm the only one


Go on and hold her 'til the screamin' is gone
Go on, believe her when she tells you nothing's wrong

But I'm the only one
Who'll walk across a fire for you
And I'm the only one
Who'll drown in my desire for you
It's only fear that makes you run
The demons that you're hiding from
When all your promises are gone
I'm the only one, yeah
And I'm the only one
Who'll drown in my desire for you
It's only fear that makes you run
The demons that you're hiding from
When all your promises are gone
I'm the only one

I'm the only one, baby
I'm the only one
Ain't nobody else is gonna love you
Ain't nobody else is gonna love you
Ooh
