The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Can't stop the fun from raging
Oh 'cause we're in too deep
Can't take a whip and tame it
Oh is the price too steep
I want to make you happy
Won't give myself away
Want me to fake it baby
It's just a game we play
You want in, I want out
That's what love is all about
Full of hope and full of doubt
You want in and baby I want out
You want in and I want out
I've got a heart in danger
Oh 'cause I'm stuck on you
I wish we could start again as strangers
Oh don't know what to do
Don't want to start no trouble
Don't want to go away
Wait too long and the pain is double
They were the ones that paid
You want in, I want out
That's what love is all about
Full of hope and full of doubt
You want in and baby I want out
You want in and I want out
Why do you do it to me
I want to make you happy
Won't give myself away
Want me to fake it baby
It's just a game we play
You want in, I want out
That's what love is all about
Full of hope and full of doubt
You want in and baby I want out
You want in and I want out
