People say you run around, I don't even care. I could never hold you down, I don't even dare. I just wanna play your game, no matter what the rules. I've met an awful lot of dames, but not quite as bad as you. Let me try to love you, I know I could. One night to hold you, just ain't no good. (chorus) I don't wanna leave you, I don't wanna go. Can't you see I need you? Girl, I need you so. I will be your doctor babe, I'll make you feel alright. I've got something to keep you warm, on a cold and lonely night, now turn out the light. I will never tie you down, 'cause I know you wanna be free, so free. Say you'll let me come around, say you wanna be with me. Let me try to love you, I know I could. One night to hold you just ain't no good. (repeat chorus) All I wonna do, is make sweet love to you. Now you wanna leave me. What am I supposed to do? Can't you hang past to? That was 12 o'clock at night. Why you wanna leave so soon? Girl, you know it ain't right. (repeat chorus) I don't wanna leave you, I don't wanna go. Let me try to love you, I know I could. One night to hold you, just ain't no good. I don't wanna leave you. (repeat chorus)
