It starts out with a kiss, even though you're only friends. Now there's nothing wrong with this. But this is where his act begins. He'll hold you and tell you that's what love is for, Oh but don't give in to him. No, don't give in to him cause he will only ask for more. You don't want to lose him so you let him have his way. You don't dare refuse him Because you know the price you'll pay. He's bragging that he never lost before, So don't give in to him. No, no, don't give in to him cause he will only ask for more Baby don't give into him, No, no, don't give into him cause I'm the one who loves you more
