This Is Serious - Marilyn Martin

There’s a rumor going round

About you in an all-night dive

As the night door sounds

I turn over and start to cry

This is serious

I don’t wanna lose you now

This is serious

I don’t wanna lose you now

Every morning you’re cold

As though you just came inside

You can’t feel enough for me

To leave me with some self pride

This is serious

I don’t wanna lose you now

Oh, this is serious

I don’t wanna lose you now

If it’s comfort that you’re after, a bitter show of tears

So you can get angry and then disappear

(Disappear) Yeah, yeah, yeah

This is serious

I don’t wanna lose you now

All alone in the night

We’ll beg just for company

In the dark I made my mind up to fight

And I let you walk all over me

This is serious

I don’t wanna lose you now

Oh no, no, this is serious

I don’t wanna lose you now

Listen: all I really want

Is to feel that you’re a part (I don’t wanna lose you now…)

Talk to me in truth

I won’t take you apart (I don’t wanna lose you now…)

Don’t hold yourself from me

Just be with me (I don’t wanna lose you now…)

Show me some emotion

Don’t give me the big freeze!!!

This is serious

I don’t wanna lose you now

No, oh, this is serious

I don’t wanna lose you now

Oh, don’t wanna lose you now

Don’t wanna lose you now, no

This is so serious (I don’t wanna lose you now…)

I’m not gonna

I’m not gonna lose you now, now, now, now

(I don’t wanna lose you now…)

This is so, so serious…

(I don’t wanna lose you now…)

Oh, oh no, no…

(I don’t wanna lose you now…)
