I wasn't jealous before we met
Now every stranger I meet is a potential threat
And I'm possessive, it isn't nice
You've heard me saying that tennis was my only vice

But now it isn't true
And everything is new
And all I've learned has overturned
And I beg of you

Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
Don't go sharing your devotion
Lay all your love on me

It was like shooting a sitting duck
A little small talk, a smile and, baby, I was stuck
I still don't know what you've done to me
A grown-up man should never fall so easily

I feel a kind of fear
Whenever you're not near
Unsatisfied, I skip my pride
And I beg you, dear

Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
Don't go sharing your devotion
Lay all your love on me

Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
Don't go sharing your devotion
Lay all your love on me
Lay all your love on me

Don't go sharing your devotion
Lay all your love on me
Lay all your love on me
