Strong Enough / The Hits

I'm Not Strong Enough To Say No

(Robert John "Mutt" Lange)

 

The sign says "Do not touch" -you're out of bounds

Your forbidden fruit, don't come around

It says don't make plans 'cause in your hand

Is a promise made to another man

 'Cause when you're around my defenses go down

Feelings get stronger, looks get longer

The closer you come, the weaker I get

If it ain't happened now, just ain't happened yet

 

So please, please, please go

I'm not strong enough to say no

Please, please don't stay

I'm not man enough to walk away

Please, please pass by

I can't resist you even though I try

So please go, I'm not strong enough to say no

 

The sign says "Slow down - Slippery ice"

You've got dangerous curves, don't think twice

It says, "Not For Sale," you're spoken for

Just take your heart and walk out the door

'Cause when you're around my defenses go down

Feelings get stronger, looks get longer

The closer you come, the weaker I get

If it ain't happened now, just ain't happened yet

 

So please, please, please go

I'm not strong enough to say no

Please, please don't stay

I'm not man enough to walk away

Please, please pass by

I can't resist you even though I try

So please go, I'm not strong enough to say no

 

Don't say I didn't warn you, don't say you didn't know

Don't wait till it's too late and then try to go

The closer you come, the weaker I get

If it ain't happened now, just ain't happened yet

 

I'm beggin' you baby please, please, please go

I'm not strong enough to say no

Please, please don't stay

I'm not man enough to walk away

Please, please pass by

I can't resist you even though I try

So please go, I'm not strong enough to say no
