Don't go wasting your emotion Lay all your love on me 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 small cat was my only vice But now it isn't true Now everything is new And all I've learned has overturned I think of you Don't go wasting your emotion Lay all your love on me Don't go sharing your devotion Lay all your love on me 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'll 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 Don't go sharing your devotion Lay all your love on me
