Wasted Love
You tell me, how can this be healthy?
It isn't holding him up, it isn't tying her down?
Locked and joined at the lips, at the loins
It's a risky operation, but a certain separation is
worth the chance
God you can't get through to two so frozen in time
Drenched in whines and whispers until the certificate
is signed
Tease me, centre me, tame this enemy, he's been a
wasted love
Wake up Ella! What are you thinking?
I know it's the fifties, but that's no excuse
He treats you bad, he's never home, and when he is he
beats you
He rattles the charms, holds you in his arms and you
forget
No you can't leave your man, you'll just go back on
hands and knees
Another fine performer can't differentiate between
health and disease
Tease me, centre me, tame this enemy, he's been a
wasted love
Get out from under the shadow of a blunder
Save yourself, save yourself
Play it down, play dumb, play around, you're just one
shrug away
Suit up, take your place, step up to the plate, step
out on the stage!
Tease me, centre me, tame this enemy, he's been a
wasted love
Back
