Lyrics: Roy Orbison. The Essential Roy Orbison. Crawling Back.


Only you and no one else
Can keep me crawling back
You know I can't help myself
And now I'm crawling back

After all you've done to me
The times you've turned me down
I still will be your clown
Because I love you
I'm crawling back

You know I would die for you
Heaven knows how I have cried for you
But what else can I do
But crawl on back to you, ooh
Oooh, crawling back to you

People stop they talk and they stare
But they don't know that you really care
That you're only lonely, and making believe
And you need me around
When the world turns you down

Whenever you might need me
I will come crawling back
Wherever you will lead me
I will come crawling back
