In the beginning
|
You came on so strong
|
You were polite
|
And full of charm
|
|
You got what you wanted
|
Then it wasn't very long
|
Before you dropped the act
|
And hot became lukewarm
|
|
You can tell everybody
|
That we're just foolin' around
|
But, baby, don't fool yourself
|
I know what's going down
|
|
If you won't hold my hand
|
How can you call yourself my man?
|
If I, if I can't meet your friends
|
And your family, how can I be
|
Your girlfriend on demand?
|
If you won't hold my hand
|
|
Give me one good reason
|
I should sit around and wait
|
If you control my destiny
|
How can I trust in fate?
|
|
Go ahead, take your time
|
I want you to be free
|
But I won't stay here by your side
|
While you're denying me
|
|
If you won't hold my hand
|
How can you call yourself my man?
|
And you, see you don't understand
|
What this does to me, how it feels to be
|
Your girlfriend on demand
|
When you won't hold my hand
|
|
You whisper that you love me
|
But you won't say it out loud
|
You act like you're ashamed to be with me
|
I want a man who's proud
|
|
Tell me to my face I'm not good enough
|
What could you possibly be thinking of?
|
Why won't you look me in the eyes
|
When we're making love?
|
|
If you won't hold my hand
|
Then how can you call yourself my man?
|
And you, you don't understand
|
What it does to me, how it feels to be
|
Your girlfriend on demand
|
If you won't hold my, hold my hand
|
|
Hold my hand
|
It's all I'm asking, baby
|
To hold my hand
|
