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 o - verturned I beg of you
Don't go wasting your e - mo - tion 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 e - mo - tion Lay all your love on me Don't go sharing your de - vo - tion 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 I was sensible It makes the truth even more incomprehensible
'Cause everything is new And everything is you And all I've learned has o - verturned What can I do
Don't go wasting your e - mo - tion Lay all your love on me Don't go sharing your de - vo - tion Lay all your love on me Don't go wasting your e - mo - tion Lay all your love on me Don't go sharing your de - vo - tion Lay all your love on me
