You're gonna get a taste of love

So, if you've got a change of heart

Stop that before you start

I thought you knew that

You can't be doin' that now

Stop it right away

'Cause I need a little kindness

But, never will I disappear

So, none of this pulling back

What's on your mind, now baby love
Inquiring about the thoughts of the other person.
Answer my call, I'm callin'

Don't stop now that I've fallen

Promising never to leave the other person.
