Hey now baby, you're looking for a place to sleep
The night is cold, the city's big
You're in trouble deep
Something tells me you shouldn't be the lonely one
I'll make you mine, make you feel you're the only one
And I say
Why why why don't you keep me company
I'll try try try not to be in the way
I could help to end this misery
Oh why why why don't you let me stay
All those people putting on a weary face
Turn away as if to say
It's a real disgrace
Don't be shy now, take a step into the light
I'll feed your heart, feed your soul to your appetite
And I say
Why why why don't you keep me company
I'll try try try not to be in the way
I could help to end this misery
Oh why why why don't you let me stay
Our love would be innocent
Oh so innocent in every way
And I say
Why why why don't you keep me company
I'll try try try not to be in the way
I could help to end this misery
Oh why why why don't you let me stay
