Abbacadabra - Lay All Your Love On Me lyrics

rate me

I wasn't jealous before we met,

Now ev'ry woman I see is a potential threat,

And I'm possessive, it isn't nice,

You've heard me saying that smoking was my only vice.

But now it isn't true, now ev'rything is new

And all I've learned has overturned; I beg of you:

Don't go wasting your emotion,

Lay all your love on me.

It was like shooting a sittin' duck,

A little small talk, a smile and, baby, I was stuck.

I still don't know what you've done with me,

A grown up woman should never fall so easily.

I feel a kind of fear when I don't have you near,

Unsatisfied I skip my pride, I beg you, dear:

* Don't go wasting your emotion,

Lay all your love on me.

Don't go sharing your devotion,

Lay all your love on me.

I've had a few little love affairs,

They didn't last very long and they've been pretty scarce.

I used to think that was sensible,

It makes the truth even more incomprehensible.

'Cause ev'rything is new and ev'rything is you,

And all I've learned has overturned, what can I do?

* Repeat
