You weren't jealous before we met.
Now every woman you see is a potential threat.
Now you're possessive, it isn't nice.
You used to say that smoking was your only vice.

But now it isn't true.
Now anything's new.
And all I've learned
Has overturned
What I think of you.

Don't go wasting your emotion.
Lay all your love on me.
Don't go sharing your devotion.
Lay all your love on me.

I used to think love was sensible.
It makes the truth even more incomprehensible.
I still don't know what you've done to me.
A grown-up boy should never fall so easily.

I feel a kind of fear
When I don't have you near.
Unsatisfied,
I swallow my pride.
I beg you, dear.

Don't go wasting your emotion.
Lay all you love on me.
Don't go sharing your devotion.
Lay all your love on me.

Don't go wasting your emotion.
Lay all your love on me.
Don't go sharing your devotion.
Lay all your love on me.
