Lyrics

Hey
Slow it down
Whataya want from me?
Whataya want from me?
Yeah
I'm afraid
Whataya want from me?
Whataya want from me?
There might have been a time
When I gave myself away
Oh once upon a time
I didn't give a damn
But now
Here we are
So whataya want from me?
Whataya want from me?
Just don't give up
I'm workin' it out
Please don't give in
I won't let you down
It messed me up
I need a second to breathe
Just keep coming around
Hey!
Whataya want from me?
(Whataya want from me?)
Whataya want from me?
Whataya want from me?
Yeah (yeah)
It's plain to see (it's plain to see)
That baby you're beautiful
And there's nothing wrong with you
It's me
I'm a freak
But thanks for lovin' me
Cause you're doing it perfectly
There might have been a time
When I would let you slip away
I wouldn't even try but I think
But I think that you could save my life
(Just don't give up)
(I'm workin' it out)
Please don't give in
I won't let you down
It messed me up
I need a second to breathe
Just keep coming around
Hey!
Whataya want from me?
(Whataya want from me?)
Whataya want from me?
Whataya want from me?
Just don't give up on me
I won't let you down
No, I won't let you down
Just don't give up
I'm workin' it out
Please don't give in
I won't let you down
It messed me up
I need a second to breathe
Just keep coming around
Hey!
Whataya want from me?
(Whataya want from me?)
Whataya want from me?
(Whataya want from me?)
Whataya want from me?
