Alright - now we`re alone
I know you`re expecting me
To tell you all that I`ve been through
Oh sorry, it takes so long
And anyway, it`s hurting me
So don`t ask, it might hurt you too
Maybe I`m the fool
To turn down the love you`re offering
Thanks - but love`s a no (my baby)
There`s too much at stake
It`s too soon I know (my baby)
And just too much to take
Sometimes - I get scared
Loving on my own again
Some days I just want to cry
Memories won`t set me free
Those memories of how it used to be
Thanks - but love`s a no (my baby)
There`s too much at stake
It`s too soon I know (my baby)
And just too much to take
No - it wasn`t always like this
I used to be the one who was smart
I was a hard girl
I couldn`t get caught - I was strong
Oh - but then I got hurt
How I got hurt
Oh darlin` - take a little time with me
Darlin` - take a little time
Just a little time
One day - I don`t know when
Maybe we can try again
Maybe all I need is time
Hold me then say goodbye
Don`t hate me - for all the things I`ve said
Thanks - but love`s a no (my baby)
There`s too much at stake
It`s too soon I know (my baby)
And just too much to take
Oh darlin` take a little time with me
Oh darlin` take a little time
Just a little time
