Right from the start

I tried to tell you, boy
It can't be tonight
It just isn't right
You've got to understand
When there's hesitation
You've got to be patient
It's not to win or lose
It's how you play
You've got to find a way
To make me stay
Oh, can't you see
We're losing ground?
You better slow it down
Or walk away

I'm not giving you my heart
Right from the start
I got to know
You're not learning to love oh baby
I got no secrets in the dark
Right from the start
I got to know you'll stay

Just 'cause I wanted you
Don't take advantage
Don't take me for granted
I need much more than this
Can't affection, some real attention
It's not to win or lose
It's how you play
You've got to find a way
To make me stay
Oh, can't you see
We're losing ground?
You better slow it down
Or walk away

I'm not giving you my heart
Right from the start
I got to know
You're gonna learn how to love oh baby
I got no secrets in the dark
Right from the start
I got to know you'll stay
It's not to win or lose
It's how you play
You've got to find a way
To make mistakes
Oh, can't you see
We're losing ground?
You better slow it down
Or walk away

I'm not giving you my heart
Right from the start
I got to know
You're gonna learn how to love oh baby
I got no secrets in the dark
Right from the start
I got to know you'll stay
