Lyrics: Lead Me On
Once I made a promise that I’d never lead you on
But I feel the yearn to love you even though I know it’s wrong
You’ll have to take my hand and lead me slowly through the door
I’ll be wrong in what I’m doin’ I can’t refuse you anymore.Lead me on and take control of how I feel
I can’t do this on my own cause it’s against my will
I need love warm and tender in a way I’ve never known
If you want me I’ll go with you but you’ll have to lead me on.Lead me on and take control of how I feel
I can’t do this on my own cause it’s against my will
I need love warm and tender in a way I’ve never known
If you want me I’ll go with you but you’ll have to lead me on…
