[Chorus] Don't take what you want, take what you need Don't take what you want, take it or leave Love ain't a game, no it ain't for free So don't take what you want, take what you need [Verse 1] If you fumble, don’t you stumble, just take my hand I’ve been waiting, hesitating, trying to understand All I do is keep on loving, but you play your games Time keeps ticking, clock keeps lurking, still you never change [Chorus] Don't take what you want, take what you need Don't take what you want, take it or leave Love ain't a game, no it ain't for free So don't take what you want, take what you need [Verse 2] I'll be standing by my man, watching you go by if you turn around and tell me, "this is how it feels to fly" Every promise, every flower, they all fade to dust If you’re reaching for the future, then stop leaving us [Chorus] Don't take what you want, take what you need Don't take what you want, take it or leave Love ain't a game, no it ain't for free So don't take what you want, take what you need [Bridge] The clock is ticking, midnight’s near waiting in the spotlight is all you fear But if you want a love that stands Land right here and take my hand [Chorus] Don't take what you want, take what you need Don't take what you want, take it or leave (i'll be waiting) Love ain't a game, no it ain't for free (no no no) So don't take what you want, take what you need (take what you need) take what you need take what you need
