I wasn`t jealous before we met
Now every 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 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 smalltalk,
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 everything is new
And everything is you
And all I`ve learned has overturned
What can I do...
Don`t go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
Don`t go sharing your devotion
Lay all your love on me
Don`t go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
Don`t go sharing your devotion
Lay all your love on me
