Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Girl, when you hold me
How you control me
You bend and you fold me anyway you please
It must be easy for you, the little things that you do
Course whenever you're through
You leave at your ease
[Verse 2]
And I never know, girl
If I should stay or go, girl
If you're for real or for play
Of course you'll never say
[Verse 3]
But don't love me for fun, hun
Let me be the one, hun
Love me for a reason
And let the reason be love
[Verse 4]
Don't love me for fun, hun
Let me be the one
Love me for a reason
And let the reason be love
[Verse 5]
Kisses and caresses
Are only minor tests, babe
Of love which it stresses
Between a woman and man
[Verse 6]
So if I'm just a desire
A lust you have acquired
Then I must quench the fire
And proudly take a stand
[Verse 7]
I can't continue guessing
Because it's only messing
Of my pride and my mind
Oh, so right now it's time to tell you
[Verse 8]
Don't love me for fun, hun
Let me be the one, hun
Love me for a reason
And let the reason be love
[Verse 9]
Don't love me for fun, hun
Let me be the one, hun
Love me for a reason
And let the reason be love
[Verse 10]
Now if you're only teasin'
Thinkin' that you're pleasin'
You best be believin'
It's gonna take a lot more
[Verse 11]
'Cause I'm a little old-fashioned
It takes more than a physical attraction
My initial reaction is
Honey, give me love
Not a facsimile of me, baby
[Verse 12]
Don't, don't love me for fun
Let me, let, let me be the one
Love me for a reason
And let the reason be love
[Verse 13]
Oh, don't love me for fun, hun
Let me be the one, hun
Love me for a reason
And let the reason be love
