(Tenement slum |
| [00:12.88] |
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ah) |
| [00:19.84] |
You think that I don't feel love |
| [00:22.12] |
But what I feel for you is real love |
| [00:24.33] |
In those eyes, I see reflected a hurt, scorned, rejected |
| [00:29.07] |
Love child, never meant to be |
| [00:33.36] |
Love child, born in poverty |
| [00:38.06] |
Love child, never meant to be |
| [00:42.70] |
Love child, take a look at me |
| [00:47.36] |
Started my life in an old, cold, rundown tenement slum (Tenement slum) |
| [00:53.95] |
My father left, he never even married Mom |
| [00:57.50] |
I shared the guilt my mama knew |
| [00:59.86] |
So afraid that others knew I had no name |
| [01:03.83] |
Ah, this love we're contemplating |
| [01:06.90] |
Is worth the pain of waiting |
| [01:09.40] |
We'll only end up hating |
| [01:11.82] |
The child we may be creating |
| [01:13.84] |
Love child, never meant to be (Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on) |
| [01:18.79] |
Love child (Scorned by) society |
| [01:23.24] |
Love child, always second best (Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on) |
| [01:27.83] |
Love child, different from the rest |
| [01:33.14] |
(Hold on, hold on, just a little bit longer) Mmm, baby |
| [01:37.20] |
(Hold on, hold on, just a little bit longer) Mmm, baby |
| [01:41.61] |
I started school in a worn, torn dress that somebody threw out |
| [01:48.21] |
I knew the way it felt to always live in doubt |
| [01:51.77] |
To be without the simple things |
| [01:54.15] |
So afraid my friends would see the guilt in me |
| [01:58.06] |
Ah, don't think that I don't need you |
| [02:01.26] |
Don't think I don't wanna please you |
| [02:03.52] |
But no child of mine will be bearing |
| [02:05.91] |
The name of shame I've been wearing |
| [02:07.87] |
Love child, love child, never quite as good |
| [02:12.45] |
Afraid, ashamed, misunderstood (Just a little bit longer, love child) |
| [02:17.09] |
But I'll always love you (Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on) |
| [02:21.85] |
I'll always love you (Just a little bit longer, love child) |
| [02:27.70] |
I'll always love you (Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on) |
| [02:31.20] |
Always love you (Just a little bit longer, love child) |
| [02:36.58] |
I'll always love you (Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on) |
| [02:39.93] |
Always love you (Just a little bit longer, love child) |
| [02:45.53] |
You, you, you (Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on) |
| [02:50.08] |
I'll always love you (Just a little bit longer, love child) |
