And I Panicked
by The Dramatics

And I Panicked
Three times this morning I put my phone to my ear
Dialed your number, let it ring
But still no one was there
When I ran to your house and found your room unoccupied
I checked the drawers and closets all were empty inside
And suddenly it hit me
And I panicked to think part of my life had gone away
And I panicked not knowing how I'd live after today
'Cause I love you
And I need you
Oh, I want you, baby
And I panicked and cried
And I cried...
I walked home wondering
How could you do this me
Guess you were lying when we planned
How our future would be
Remember how we talked about a home and kids someday?

I can't believe it was a part of the games that you play
To just love and run away
And I panicked to think part of my life had gone away
And I panicked not knowing how I'd live after today
'Cause I love you
And I need you
Oh, I want you, baby
And I panicked and cried
And I cried...
Oh... baby, listen girl
I said I panicked...
Oh, can't you see I panicked and cried
'Bout how my life had just slipped on away from me, baby
How can make it? - I can't live
I panicked
I know I've got to find somebody else
My life is no good without you, baby
Baby I panicked, I panicked, I panicked...
