Love Endeavor
Alice Smith Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And it's been a while since I saw him last, he left so fast
And I'd like to try to share a kiss or two with you
And I'd love to touch you , so many things that we can do
So if you do feel the way that I feel about you
Come on and share this crush with me
Oh Baby, this love endeavor don't have to last forever
He came when I wanted one to call all mine
And to my eye, he's one of such a lovely kind
I could spend my time trying to sort out your feelings
But it's not my style anymore so tell me darling
Do you feel the way that I feel about you
Come on and share this crush with me
Oh Baby, this love endeavor don't have to last forever
Come on and share whatever you want with me
Don't want to mislead you, let me tell you
Don't wanna take you over, just come over
Tell me or just show me that you want me
Love me if it's only for a week
There's no time to waste for you and I
No time for fruitless lies
The sun goes by, so does the chance to try
Say yes or say good-bye
So if you do feel the way that I feel about you
Come on and share this crush with me
Oh Baby this love endeavor don't have to last forever
Come on and share whatever you want with me
Would love to touch you, kiss you, and caress you
Come on and share this rush with me
Oh Baby, this love endeavor don't have to last forever
Come on and share whatever you want with me
La la la…
