I  don't want to be the sole  survivor
I  don't want to close it down
I  don't want to know what goes  on between  you
Whenever  I ain't around
I  don't want to be the last  to hear it
And  I don't want to live apart
But  I don't want to wear your diamond  ring
If  you won't give me your heart
 I don't think you know how bad you treat me
 But I can't live like a whore
 She thinks she's got the key to your heart
 Now I've got to wait by the door
 If I could only learn to  make you love me
 I'll make  you love me like I  love you
 If I could give what I want  to give you
 I'd want  to give you a heart  that's true
 I don't want to know how long you're leaving
 And I don't want to know why
 If I can't lie in your arms this evening
 I'll just stay home and cry
 I don't want to be second to no one
 I don't want to let it be
 I don't know what's going to happen tomorrow
 But tonight you belong here with me
 I don't know if this can last forever
 Cause I don't know what I can stand
 I can love you like a man should be loved
 But I can't love half a man
