Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Walking down the avenue
Looking out for something new
It's the right time to give in
The right time to lose
To begin again
Maybe win again
[Verse 2]
All I want is to talk to you
Turn me onto something true
I can't be with another
You know I've been used
I won't leave again
Help me to the end
[Verse 3]
All I know is
My, oh my, this kind of love
Has taken me from my enemies
Don't let the pressure get to me
My, oh my, it's bad enough
Could you stay with me? Don't let me go
Sadness and fury is all I know
[Verse 4]
You've taken me from my enemies
I still let the pressure get to me
[Verse 5]
I thought I could break away
I hope I fall in love today
No more heartbreak and trouble
You know I've been bruised
Let me in again
I could use a friend
[Verse 6]
All I know is
My, oh my, this kind of love
Has taken me from my enemies
Don't let the pressure get to me
My, oh my, it's bad enough
Could you stay with me? Don't let me go
Sadness and fury is all I know
[Verse 7]
You've taken me from my enemies
I still let the pressure get to me
