Stay a Little While, Child

I've been trying To make you love me But everything I try Just takes you further from me You don't love me, oh no So you treat me cruel But no matter how you hurt me I'll always be your fool But if you don't want me forever And if you don't need me forever And if you can't love me forever Take me for a little while So I can hold you, baby (Take me for a little while) So I can make you want me I gotta stop it There should be a law (Baby, I need you) 'Cause every time you put me down I love you more And I feel so helpless (Baby, I need you) And it ain't funny (You know, I need you) 'Cause deep down inside I know You're never gonna love me But if you don't want me forever And if you don't need me forever And if you can't love me forever Take me for a little while So I can hold you, baby (Take me for a little while) So I can make you want me (Take me for a little while) I got to have you, baby (Take me for a little while) Don't you know anyway you want me I'm yours (Take me for a little while) (Take me for a little while) Won't you have me, baby? (Take me for a little while) Anyway you want me I'm yours (Take me for a little while) Anything you want me to do (Take me for a little while)
