Gimme your love [32x]

Don't go and break my heart (don't go and break my heart)

You got the best of me

Don't go and break my heart (don't go and break my heart)

You got the best of me

Oh, you love so good

I don't wanna let go

And although I should

I can't leave you alone

Cause you're so disarming

I'm caught up in the mist of you

And I cannot resist at all

Boy if I do

The things you want me to

The way I used to do

Would you love (love) me (me) baby

Or leave me feeling used

Would you go and break my heart

Heartbreaker you got the best of me

But I just keep on coming back incessantly

Oh why did you have to run your game on me

I should have known right from the start

You'd go and break my heart

Gimme your love [17x]

I want your love

I need your love

Gotta have your love

It's a shame to be so euphoric and weak

When you smile at me

And you tell me the things

That you know are stated to relinquish my love

To you but I cannot resist

At all

Heartbreaker you got the best of me

But I just keep on coming back incessantly

Oh, why did you have to run your game on me

I should have known right from the start

You'd go and break my heart

Heartbreaker you got the best of me

But I just keep on coming back incessantly

Oh, why did you have to run your game on me

I should have known right from the start

You'd go and break my heart

I keep, I keep coming right back [12x]

I keep on [3x]

I keep on coming back to you

Yea, hey, I, I keep on coming back to you

Yeah

Ooh, I keep coming back

Gimme your love [15x]

Don't go and break my heart

You got the best of me

Don't go and break my heart

Ooh I need your love baby

You got the best of me

Think of the times, moments we shared (shared)

Hearbreaker you got the best of me

Think of the times, moments we shared

I've been thinking bout the way you haven't treated me right

Me right

I've been dreaming bout you baby I can't sleep at night

At night

Cause you know how we make each other feel

We shouldn't be apart (we shouldn't be apart)

So why don't you come on baby don't go and break my heart

If you should ever be lonely think of the times

Think of the moments we shared

If you should ever be lonely think of the times

Think of the moments we shared

You can't lie to me baby cause you're not good at lies

At lies

I can see through you baby right through your eyes

Your eyes

Cause you know how we make each feel

We shouldn't be apart (we shouldn't be apart)

So why don't you come on baby

Don't go and break my heart

If you should ever be lonely think of the times

Think of the moments we shared

If you should ever be lonely think of the times

Think of the moments we shared
