From the recording Sunday Morning Coffee Collection - Volume One
“Love, Love Please Go Away” borrows a familiar childhood refrain and turns it into a grown-up game of romantic keep-away. She’s been hurt before, her heart has the scars to prove it, and this time she’s determined to enjoy the attraction without getting tangled up in love. The problem is temptation keeps getting closer, passion keeps turning up the heat, and that carefully guarded heart may not be quite as stone-cold as she claims. It’s playful, flirtatious and a little conflicted — come a little closer if you want, Love… just don’t plan on staying.
Lyrics
[Intro]
Fais l'amour avec moi
Viens dormir mon amour
[Verse]
Love, oh love, please go away
Leave my heart alone
It's been hurt so bad, you know
I think it's turned to stone
Well, I don't wanna take the chance again
I don't know if I can
So send me your rescue from above
Before I fall in, before I fall in
[Chorus]
Love, love, please go away
Come on back some other day
Me and my baby, just wanna play
Oh, love, love, please go away
Love, love, please go away
Come on back some other day
Me and my baby, just wanna play
Oh, love, love, (go away)
[Verse]
Temptation so close to me
Passion's my desire
Revelations all around
Your taste sets me on fire
Well, it's not what you think, can't you see?
I want no chains on me
Just rescue me from reality
Before I fall in, before I fall in
[Chorus]
Love, love, please go away
Come on back some other day
Me and my baby, just wanna play
Oh, love, love, please go away
ooh love love don't make a sound
I feel your heartbeat start to pound
I know you're out there all around
Oh Love love
[Solo]
[Bridge]
Love, love, please go away
Come on back some other day
Me and my baby, just wanna play
Oh, love, love, please go away
[Chorus]
Whoa ooh whoa – Love, love, please go away
Come on back some other day
Me and my baby, just wanna play
Oh, love, love, please go away
Love, love, please go away
Come on back some other day
Me and my baby, just wanna play
Oh, love, love, please go away
[Outro]
Love, love, please go away
Come on back some other day
Me and my baby, just wanna play
Oh, love, love, please go away
