She tells him "uh, love, no one's ever going to hurt you, love I'm going to give you all of my love Nobody matters like you" -Stay out there, stay out there- She tells him "your life ain't going to be nothing like my life You're going to grow and have a good life I'm going to do what I've got to do" -Stay out there, stay out there-
