Everytime I end up waking up in some hotel without my set of keys
Coming to, remembering the way you turned me out when I was on my knees
You think that was one up for you
But I know I scored something too

When I see the way you have to struggle just to do a little simple thing
Feel apologetic just because I'm not particularly suffering
So I let you take me down
I'm like your rent-a-clown

(When I saw my baby cry)
When I saw my baby cry
I knew that he loved me
That was some great victory
He cried because of me

He hit me with his belt
His tears were all I felt
When I saw my baby cry
I knew he loved me

When you try to cut me down and push me back if I attack your attitude
I rise up to the challenge, 'cause I like to taste the sugar of your violent mood
Just like a stormy sea
You're natural poetry to me
(When I saw my baby cry)
When I saw my baby cry
I knew that he loved me
That was some great victory
He cried because of me

He hit me with his belt
His tears were all I felt
When I saw my baby cry
I knew he loved me
I knew he loved me
