Lyrics

I've been trying
To make you love me
But everything I try
Just takes you further from me
You don't love me
And so you treat me cruel
But no matter you hurt me
I'll always be a fool
If you don't want me forever
If you don't need me forever
If you don't love me forever
Take me for a little while
So I could hold you baby
(Take me for a little while)
So I could make you want me
I've got to stop it
There should be a law
'Cause every time you put me down
I want you more
Oh, I feel so helpless
And it ain't funny
'Cause deep inside I know
You're never gonna love me
If you don't want me forever
If you don't need me forever
If you don't love me forever
Take me for a little while
So I could hold you baby
(Take me for a little while)
So I could make you want me
(Take me for a little while)
So I could hold you baby
(Take me for a little while)
So I could make you want me
(Take me for a little while)
You know I got to have you
(Take me for a little while)
You know I'll do anything for you
(Take me for a little while)
(Take me for a little while)
Take anything you want
(Take me for a little while)
Take anything you need
(Take me for a little while)
You know I want you dear
(Take me for a little while)
Do anything for you
