I wasn't jealous before we met, now every man that 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 everything 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 sitting 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
