Take It from Me

Who says that love is a simple thing
When you’re cold and alone
And you need something more

Saw him last night at the bar and
He said “hey girl, you know It’s
A lonely world
Let me take it from here”

I said, “sorry no thanks I am better off on my own
You’re confident, but take it slow
I hear you loud and clear”

Oh but what’s gotten into me, this ain’t reality no
I’m caught not knowing what to think
Baby let’s take it slow

And tell me who says that love is a simple thing
When you’re cold and alone and you need something more
Darling, love will pick you up, or it stings
No there’s no in between, you can take it from me
Because, nothing in life comes to you for free
Take it from me

His words are like honey dripping off of his tongue
I must admit is has been fun
But I’ve got to go

He said “baby don’t leave there’s so much that you’ve yet to see”
Now I’m not quite sure what you mean
Now get off of your throne
Oh but what’s gotten into me, this ain’t reality no
I’m caught not knowing what to think
Baby let’s take it slow

And tell me who says that love is a simple thing
When you’re cold and alone and you need something more
Darling, love will pick you up, or it stings
No there’s no in between, you can take it from me
Because, nothing in life comes to you for free
Take it from

Me and all my precious values block the way
When I want you to stay
Well, you know what just leads the way
And, maybe you might just be different from the rest
I’ll put you to the test
But still my mind won’t rest
It tells me

Who says that love is a simple thing
When you’re cold and alone and you need something more
Darling, love will pick you up, or it stings
No there’s no in between, you can take it from me
Because nothing in life comes to you for free
I said, nothing in life comes to you for free
Baby, nothing in life comes to you for free
Take it from me
