Etta James - I Don't Want It Lyrics

Lyrics I Don't Want It - Etta James



I can't understand
The way that you act
You give me your love
And then you take it all back
I know everyone
Is somebody's fool, yeah
You broke my heart
And every every rule, yeah
Now if this is love
That you're giving me
Uh-uh, I don't want it
(Don't want it, don't want it)
I don't want it
(Don't want it, don't want it)
I've been a fool
In the biggest kind of way, yeah
To think that you could ever belong to me, yeah
When I know
I'm no closer to your heart
Than the sky is
Right now
To the sea
Oh, you come to me, yeah
When things go wrong
I'm just a shoulder
For you to cry on
You only want me
Only when you need me
All I ever get
Is just a little bit of sympathy
Now if this is love
That you're giving me
Uh-uh, uh-uh I don't want it
(Don't want, it don't want it)
I don't want it
(Don't want it, don't want it)
Life without love
(Don't want it, don't want it)
Is not what I see
(Don't want it, don't want it)
But I can't get a smile
(Don't want it, don't want it)
From any stranger on the street
(Don't want it, don't want it)
Oh, love
(Don't want it, don't want it)
Don't want it, don't want it
(Don't want it, don't want it)
