Donnez-Moi
Dusty Springfield · Other Songs - Dusty Springfield
I can't see, it's a state of my mind
Believin' you
Is gonna be the end of me
You don't seem to realise
All the signs, can't you recognise?
I need you
But are you needin' me?
Donnez-moi
Oh, give it to me
Donnez-moi
Ah, you know I want it
Donnez-moi
Come on and give it to me
Donnez-moi, donnez-moi
Donnez, donnez, donnez...
It's been a while since you came inside
Held me close and talked for a while
Baby, don't let me drift away
I'm going down for the last time
Won't you please throw me a line?
I need you
But are you needin' me?
Donnez-moi
Oh, give it to me
Donnez-moi
I feel my passion through it
Donnez-moi
Ah, I'm uncontrollable
Donnez-moi, donnez-moi
Come on and do it to me
Donnez-moi
Yes, I really want it
Donnez-moi
I taste the ?????
Donnez-moi
I've got to catch my breath
Donnez-moi, donnez-moi
Tu penses jamais
Oh, alone, without you
The signs of discontent,
Misgivings, delusions
No reason to believe
?????????
?????????
Gonna read your mind
Donnez, donnez, donnez...
I'm going down for the last time
Won't you please throw me a line?
Oh, baby, don't let me drift away
Donnez-moi
Oh, give it to me
Donnez-moi, donnez-moi
Bring that power to me
Donnez-moi
Come on, I really feel it
Donnez-moi, donnez-moi
Je viens, je viens, je viens
Donnez-moi
I'm feelin', wantin'
Donnez-moi
I want to feel your heat
Donnez-moi
Baise-moi
Donnez-moi, donnez-moi
Oh, give it to me
Donnez-moi
Oh, I want it
Donnez-moi, donnez-moi
I'm full of wantin' baby
Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it
Donnez-Moi
