Little Steven and The Disciples Of Soul

Songtekst

If I give you my heart, would you love me forever

Whoa-oh, whoa-oh

Oh, I learned when I was a young boy
You turn your cheek you get slapped, yeah
I take the punches, I can't slip
And then I give it right back

Oh, even if I win, girl
You know it really won't mean too much
What I want, baby, most of all
Is the only thing that I can't touch

Oh, if I give you my heart, would you love me forever
Would you pick up the pieces if I stumble and fall
If my world falls apart, could you keep it together
If I can't have you I don't want no one at all

Oh yeah, yeah yeah

Oh, just because I'm so quiet
Just because I don't cry
Oh, the hardest lesson to learn, girl
Is how to take it inside

But there's leather and jewels to soothe me
But it isn't really what I need
Oh, there's an aching hurt inside of me
And it's the kind of thing you don't see

Oh, if I give you my heart, would you love me forever
Would you pick up the pieces if I stumble and fall
If my world falls apart, could you keep it together
If I can't have you I don't want no one at all

Yeah!
Oh, baby
Yeah!
Oh, oh-oh, yeah!

Now the years are unwinding
But I still feel the hurt
Oh, I've been fighting my whole life
For the privilege to work

Now I've stopped and looked around me
There's nobody left to blame
If I don't have you to hold me, girl
All of my work's in vain

Oh, if I give you my heart, would you love me forever
Would you pick up the pieces if I stumble and fall
If my world falls apart, could you keep it together
If I can't have you I don't want no one at all

If I give you my heart, girl, would you love me forever?
Oh yeah, stumble and fall
Oh, baby, keep it together
I don't want no one at all

Oh, baby, yeah
Yeah, baby
Oh, oh yeah!
My baby
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, baby
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh
