Love Me for a Reason

Girl, when you hold me
How you control me
You bend and you fold me
Any way you please

It must be easy for you
To love the things that you do
But just a pastime for you
I could never be

And I never know, girl
If I should stay or go, girl (or go away, girl)
'Cause the games (the game) that you play (you play)
Keep driving me away (driving me away)

Don't love me for fun, girl
Let me be the one, girl
Love me for a reason
And let the reason be love
Don't love me for fun, girl
Let me be the one, girl
Love me for a reason
Let the reason be love

Kisses and caresses
Are only minor tests, babe
Of love which it stresses
Between a woman and a man (between a woman and a man)
So if love everlasting
Isn't what you're asking
I'll have to pass, girl
I'm proud to take a stand

I can't continue guessing
Because it's only messing (it's only messing)
With my pride (my pride), and my mind (my mind)
So right now is time to tell ya

Don't love me for fun, girl
Let me be the one, girl
Love me for a reason
Let the reason be love
Don't love me for fun, girl
Let me be the one, girl
Love me for a reason
Let the reason be love

Ooh, baby
I'm just a little old-fashioned
It takes more than a physical attraction (attraction)
My initial reaction is
Honey, give me love
Not a fascimile of

Don't love me for fun, girl
Let me be the one, girl (ooh, girl)
Love me for a reason
Let the reason be love
Don't love me for fun, girl
Let me be the one, girl (oh, baby)
Love me for a reason
Let the reason be love

Don't love me for fun
Ooh baby, let be the one
Love me, love me for a reason
Let the reason be love (be love)
Don't love me for fun, girl (oh-oh)
Let me be the one, girl (let me be the one, girl)
Love me for a reason (ooh-yeah)
Let the reason be love
