DON"T GIVE YOUR HEART AWAY
by Jeanne Blake
There's a girl or two that you've got your sights on
you haven't noticed me, but just stop, wait, hang-on
to your heart, you haven't touched all the bases
Look around, good things are found in unlikely places.
You see, I've got it goin' on, but all my talents are hidden
You've got to be down to taste the fruit forbidden
I'm not a begger, I'm a chooser, and it's you I wanna meet
I'm not a sore loser, I just like to compete
Could be I'm not even your type,
but you might just see a thing or two that you like
You can take me or leave me and that's OK,
but until you get to know me, don't give it away. . .
Don't give your heart away,
before I get a chance to make you notice
heart away, before I get a chance to show you
heart away, before I get a chance to make you notice
heart away, before I get a chance to know you
There just might come a mornin' that you wake up and find
months or weeks or even years down the line
You'll see my face and you'll hear my rhymn,
but oooppps . . . boy, you're out of time
'cuz if you wait until I make it, it'll be too late
you'll wish you picked up on the signs at an earlier date
You'll be askin' yourself, how could I let her slip by me
so, I'm givin' ya fair warnin' that you ought to try me
just once, that's all that it'll take
to get the pertinent information that'll make or break
'Till you see for yourself, if you got to play,
just do me one favor, don't give it away . . .
CHORUS
All I'm askin' for is my day on the dance floor
then if you don't feel it, I'll say no more
'cuz I'd never drive ya where you don't wanna go
still I'm a good woman to know
I'm good people, yes, as good as they get
Get to know me and I gaurantee you'll have no regrets
'cuz if I'm not the girl who brings your search to it's end
at very least, you'll have made a cool friend.
With so many girls to choose from, my chance is remote
I only ask you know the candidates before you vote
I'm patient and I'm waiting until judgement day
Until then don't . . . don't give it away
CHORUS
