Lyrics for Song: Lay All Your Love on Me
Lyrics for Album: The Essential Collection [2012]
wasn't jealous before we met
Now every woman I see is a potential threat
And I'm possessive, it isn't nice
You've heard me saying that smoking was my only vice
But now it isn't true
Now everything is new
And all I've learned has overturned
I beg of you
Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
It was like shooting a sitting duck
A little small talk, a smile and baby I was stuck
I still don't know what you've done with me
A grown-up woman should never fall so easily
I feel a kind of fear
When I don't have you near
Unsatisfied, I skip my pride
I beg you dear
Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
Don't go sharing your devotion
Lay all your love on me
I've had a few little love affairs
They didn't last very long and they've been pretty scarce
I used to think that was sensible
It makes the truth even more incomprehensible
'Cause everything is new
And everything is you
And all I've learned has overturned
What can I do
Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
Don't go sharing your devotion

Lay All Your Love on Me
ABBA's "Lay All Your Love on Me" stands as a quintessential example of the Swedish group's late-career pop craftsmanship. Released on "The Essential Collection [2012]," this track exemplifies the band's signature blend of lush orchestration, intricate harmonies, and melodic sophistication that defined their discography. While often overshadowed by their earlier mega-hits, the song showcases the group's ability to craft emotionally resonant ballads that balance romantic vulnerability with polished production. As part of their broader catalog, it reflects the enduring appeal of ABBA's songwriting, which consistently delivered high-quality recordings across multiple albums and international markets. The track remains a testament to the group's mastery of the pop genre during the 1970s, offering a refined listening experience that honors their legacy. |
