Love Me Love Me Not
The Sylvers Lyrics

I wasn't jealous before we met
Before I met you, jealousy wasn't something I felt.

Now every woman I see is a potential threat
But now that you're in my life, every woman I see makes me feel threatened that I might lose you.

And I'm possessive, it isn't nice
My insecurities make me possessive over you, which isn't a good trait to have in a relationship.

You've heard me saying that smoking was my only vice
I used to say that smoking was the only thing I did that was bad.

But now it isn't true
But that's not the case anymore.

Now everything is new
My life feels completely different now that you're in it.

And all I've learned has overturned
Everything that I thought I knew about myself and love has changed since I met you.

I beg of you
Please listen to what I have to say.

Don't go wasting your emotion
Please don't waste your emotions on someone else.

Lay all your love on me
Please give me all your love instead.

(Don't go sharing your devotion)
(Please don't share your love with anyone else.)

It was like shooting a sitting duck
Falling in love with you was too easy, like shooting a sitting duck (an easy target).

A little smalltalk, a smile and baby I was stuck
All it took was some small talk and a smile from you, and I was hooked on you.

I still don't know what you've done with me
I feel like my emotions are out of my control and that you have power over me.

A grown-up woman should never fall so easily
I feel like a mature woman like me shouldn't have fallen for someone so easily.

I feel a kind of fear
Without you, I feel afraid and unsure of myself.

When I don't have you near
When you're not around me, I feel lost and scared.

Unsatisfied, I skip my pride
I'm not satisfied with just pride, so I'm willing to put it aside in order to keep you.

I beg you dear
I'm begging you, my love.

I've had a few little love affairs
I've had a few romantic flings in the past.

They didn't last very long and they've been pretty scarce
However, they were short-lived and infrequent.

I used to think I was sensible
I used to believe that I was a sensible, rational person.

It makes the truth even more incomprehensible
Which makes the fact that I fell so deeply in love with you even harder to understand.

What can I do
I feel like I'm powerless to control my feelings for you.
