When I was just a little thing, mama said to me, "Baby girl
Don't spread yourself too thinly, tread carefully
Men will take away from you more than they give, listen to me
It's easy when you're young, but when you're old you're lonely''
And I said
No, no, no, I wanna give it a go, go, go
I wanna know, know, know,
How good it feels to lie in someone's arms and hear them say ''baby''
No, no, no, I wanna give it a go, go, go
I wanna know, know, know
How good it feels to lie in someone's arms and hear them say "baby''
Trial and error after, trial and error, from the first hot fever to the cold goodbye
I've broken a few hearts, they've ripped mine
Then I say never never, never again, only one night stands for me
'Til another one comes along, I give in so easily
And I said
No, no, no, I wanna give it a go, go, go
I wanna know, know, know,
how good it feels to lie in someone's arms and hear them say "baby"
No, no, no, I wanna give it a go, go, go
I wanna know, know, know
how good it feels to lie in someone's arms and hear them say "baby"
No advice for tears in the night
They dry up in time
Too heavy to take in your stride
Just don't lose sight of your life
Now I've got it sweet, someone cares for me, ''Baby girl
I'll love you till the day I die, lust for you passionately''
But I worry, I worry, I worry, I worry I've grown old cynically
Even try to run away but stopped by eyes that see through me
And he says
No, no, no, you're gonna give it a go, go, go
'Cause you know, know, know,
how good it feels to lie in my arms and hear me say "baby"
No, no, no, you're gonna give it a go, go, go
'Cause you know, know, know,
how good it feels to lie in my arms and hear me say
