Creepin’

When I needed you/You were gone
And I didn’t have a choice but to carry on
Gettin’ over you took a long, long time
But I’m back up on my feet and I’m feelin’ fine, and now

You come creepin’ round my back door
Wantin’ me to love you just once more
You come creepin’ when your nights get cold
You come creepin’ when you need someone to hold

You said you had another man better than me
You told me our love was through and I was free
I don’t guess that man you got is lovin’ you too good
I don’t guess that man you got is lovin’ you like he should, `cause now

You come creepin’ round my back door
Wantin’ me to love you just once more
You come creepin’ when your nights get cold
You come creepin’ when you need someone to hold

You’ve got your nerve/You’ve got your nerve, girl
Comin’ round here wantin’ back into my world

You come creepin’ round my back door
Wantin’ me to love you just once more
You come creepin’ when your nights get cold
You come creepin’ when you need someone to hold
