Night after night. I keep holding on. You say you love me. Then you leave me so lonely. Baby I don't believe a word you're sayin'. I think it's all some evil game you're playin'. Still all day long all I do is think about you. You got me believin' that I can't live without you. Well if you want it here's my confession. Baby I can't help it you're my obsession. Protection that's what I need. I need protection baby from your love. Protection that's what I need. I need protection baby from your love. I wait at home by the telephone. When I call your house baby you're not there. Knock on the door and I rush down the stairs. When I open up baby you're not there. When we're together. When we're together and you put your arms around me. You keep my mind. Forever ever in doubt. You want me believin'. That baby I can't live without. Protection that's what I need. I need protection baby from your love. Protection that's what I need. I need protection baby from your love. We stand alone at my window. And stare out at the shadows down below. I feel your fingers on my face. I want to stay I want to run away. Protection that's what I need. I need protection baby from your love. Protection that's what I need. I need protection baby from your love. Protection. Liner notes on "Lost Masters" bootleg CD:. Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band The Hit Factory New York City. August 1 1983.
