Once Was Lyrics by Soleima

No. 14

2017

[Verse 1]
You said, "Don't worry 'bout a thing"
I'll be your friend, your love, your kin
But it really always seems a lie
'Cause you make me hurt, you make me cry
I'm gonna leave with no goodbye

[Pre-Chorus]
You got me if you want me

[Chorus]
Do, do, do you really want me?
Babe, babe, babe, babe, you got me
Do, do, do you really want me?
Babe, you got me

[Verse 2]
You change your mind as winds blow
In stormy times I'll never know
If you're into skin or lingerie
If you wanna, you know what I have to say
Damn it, I'm gonna run away

[Pre-Chorus]
You got me if you want me

[Chorus]
Do, do, do you really want me?
Babe, babe, babe, babe, you got me
Do, do, do you really want me?
Babe, you got me

[Bridge]
I hate I never know for sure
If you are my cancer or my cure
I hate I never know for sure
If you are my cancer or my cure

[Chorus]
You got me
Do, do, do you really want me?
Babe, babe, babe, babe, you got me
Do, do, do you really want me?
Babe, you got me
Do, do, do you really want me?
Babe, babe, babe, babe, you got me
Do, do, do you really want me?
Babe, you got me
