Don't go wasting your emotion
A grown-up woman should never fall so easily
I used to think that was sensible
Lay all your love on me
And all I've learned has overturned, what can I do?
Don't go wasting your emotion
Don't go wasting your emotion
It was like shooting a sitting duck
'Cause everything is new, yeah and everything is you
Don't go sharing your devotion
Don't go sharing your devotion
Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
I still don't know what you've done with me
Unsatisfied, I skip my pride, I beg you dear
Lay all your love on me
Lay all your love on me
And all I've learned has overturned, I beg of you
And I'm possessive, it isn't nice
I feel a kind of fear when I don't have you near
I've had a few little love affairs
Don't go wasting your emotion
But now it isn't true, now everything is new
It makes the truth even more incomprehensible
Lay all your love on me
Lay all your love on me
They didn't last very long and they've been pretty scarce
A little small talk, a smile and baby I was stuck
Don't go sharing your devotion
You've heard me saying that smoking was my only vice
Lay all your love on me
