Unabbreviated Love

Cyndi Lauper · Thirty Six All Time Favorite [2003]

How long will I last

Standing out here on my own

I wonder, did I move too fast

You know I hate slow dancing alone



I keep leading with my heart

You keep saying

That we're worlds apart

That our love is so taboo



These empty arms

Won't last too long

Hope you appreciate

I need your unabbreviated love

and I'll stick like glue

Can I anticipate

I need your unabbreviated love



Now, that's how I feel

I'm gonna be your lucky star

If you stop spinning your wheels

And sending out these false alarms



Why must love feel like a heart attack

You held me once and

You keep coming back

Oh boy you haven't got a clue



Oh these empty arms

Won't last too long

Hope you appreciate

I need your unabbreviated love

and I'll stick like glue

Can I anticipate

I need your unabbreviated ...



Love is unavoidable

Love can put you back on track

As a matter of fact

Love makes you forget your troubles

A love like that

You don't throw back, no, no



I keep leading with my heart

You keep saying

That we're worlds apart

That our love is so taboo



These empty arms

Won't last too long

Hope you appreciate

I need your unabbreviated love

and I'll stick like glue

Can I anticipate

I need your unabbreviated love



Need ya yeah

I wanna hold ya

I wanna kiss ya

I need your unabbreviated love



I wanna hold ya

I wanna squeeze ya yeah

I need your unabbreviated love
