Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Want me to love you in moderation?
Do I look moderate to you?
Sip it slowly and pay attention
I just have to see it through
You got me looking for validation
Pastures new
Want me to love you in moderation?
Well, who do you think you're talking to?
[Verse 2]
Then bow your head in the house of God
Little girl, who do you think you are?
You think you need it, you think you want love
You wouldn't want it if you knew what it was
[Verse 3]

Ooh
[Verse 4]
I've never made it with moderation
No, I never understood
All the feelin' was all or nothing
And I took everything I could
Can't hold it back, I can't take the tension
I'm trying to be good
Want me to love you in moderation?
Well don't you know, I wish I could
[Verse 5]
Then bow your head in the house of God
Little girl, who do you think you are?
You think you need it, you think you want love
You wouldn't want it if you knew what it was
[Verse 6]

[Verse 7]
Girl, you better learn (I just can't win)
How to hold it in (Can't hold it in)
And girl, you better learn (I just can't win)
I just can't win (Can't hold it in)
'Cause I don't see the words (I just can't win)
I don't see the words
Well, I'm still trying to figure out if it
Always, always, always has to hurt
[Verse 8]
You better learn
