Dusty Springfield – Go Easy On Me lyrics

(John Jarvis & Randy Goodrum)

I hear you baby, I know how you feel
We're both hungry for something that's real
Be honest with me or don't even try
'Cause I can't afford another goodbye

Go easy on me, baby, not too rough
If this is right, there's no need to rush
Oh, go easy on me, if you don't mind
'Cause I can't afford to lose another time

Starting over isn't easy as it sounds
When you try to make the pieces fit
They all fall down
And I need more than someone to hold on to
I need a love that's tried and true
It's what I'm searching for
It's worth waiting for

Talk gently to me, nice and low
If you mean it, baby, my heart will know
Oh, go easy on me, like walking on ice
'Cause forever happens once not twice

Starting over isn't easy as it sounds
When you try to make the pieces fit
They all fall down
And I need more than someone to hold on to
I need a love that's tried and true
It's what I'm looking for
It's worth waiting for

Go easy on me, baby, not too rough
If this is right, we'll know soon enough
Oh, go easy on me, not too fast
I gotta believe that what's between us
Can be more than just a promise
'Cause they don't last
So all that I ask
Go easy on me
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Easy, ooh, ooh, ooh
