Lyrics

Oh Lord, I wish I knew And understand why I'm so in love with you Nobody else in this world will do Yeah, yeah, daddy Save your love for me Run away You and I had good sex And run away Oh, but like a fool A fool in love, I stay I'm praying you save your love for me I can feel it Even when you're not near Can't conceal it I love you, I love you, my dear Even though I know no good Can ever come from loving you 'Til I can't do a thing Oh, I'm so in love with you Help me, please Oh, have mercy on a fool like me I know damn well I'm lost, but still, I plead Darling, please Save your love for me I can feel it I can feel You don't even have to be near Can't conceal it I love you, I love you, I love you, my dear Even though I know no good Can ever come from loving you 'Til I can't do a thing Lord, I'm so in love with you Oh, help me Somebody, help me, please Lord, have mercy on a fool, a fool like me I know damn well I'm lost, but still, I plead Darling, please Save your love for me While you may have fun running 'round with the crowd Hey, put the pride out loud Darling, please Save just a little-bit of your love for me, oh
