Written by Lucinda Williams



Baby, sweet baby, you're my drug

Come on and let me taste your stuff



Baby, sweet baby, bring me your gift

What surprise you gonna hit me with



Refrain:

I am waiting here for more

I am waiting by your door

I am waiting on your back steps

I am waiting in my car

I am waiting at this bar

I am waiting for your essence



Baby, sweet baby, whisper my name

Shoot your love into my vein



Baby, sweet baby, kiss me hard

Make me wonder who's in charge



(Repeat Chorus)



Baby, sweet baby, I wanna feel your breath

Even though you like to flirt with death



Baby, sweet baby, can't get enough

Please come find me and help me get f-----d up



(Repeat Chorus)



Your essence

Your essence
