(originally performed by Abba)



Verse 1:

I wasn't jealous

Before we met

Now every man that I see

Is a potential threat

And I'm possessive

It isn't nice

You've heard me saying

The smoking was my only vice



Bridge:

But now it isn't true

Now everything is new

And all I've learned

Has overturned

I beg of you



Chorus:

Don't go wasting your emotion

Lay all your love on me



Verse 2:

It was like shooting

A sitting duck

A little smalltalk

A smiled baby

I was stuck

I still don't know

What you've done with me

A grown-up man should

Never fall so easily



Bridge:

I feel a kind of fear

When I don't have you near

Unsatisfied

I skip my pride

I beg you dear



Chorus:

Don't go wasting your emotion

Lay all your love on me

Don't go sharing your devotion

Lay all your love on me



Verse 3:

I've had a few

Little love affairs

They didn't last very long

And they've been pretty scarce

I used to think

I was sensible

It makes the truth

Even more incomprehensible



Bridge:

'Cause everything is new

And everything is you

And all I've learned

Has overturned

What can I do



Chorus:

Don't go wasting...
