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 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
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
