The Supremes - Love Child lyrics
[The Supremes - Love Child lyrics]
(Tenement slum
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh, ah)
You think that I don't feel love
(I'll always love you)
But what I feel for you is real love
In those eyes, I see reflected
(I'll always love you)
A hurt, scorned, rejected (Love you)
Love child, never meant to be
Love child, born in poverty
Love child, never meant to be
Love child, take a look at me
Started my life in an old, cold
Rundown tenement slum (Tenement slum)
My father left, he never even married Mom
I shared the guilt my mama knew
So afraid that others knew I had no name
Ah, this love we're contemplating
(I'll always love you)
Is worth the pain of waiting
We'll only end up hating
(I'll always love you)
The child we may be creating (Love you)
Love child, never meant to be
(Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on)
Love child (Scorned by) Society
Love child, always second best
(Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on)
Love child
(Different from) Different from the rest
(Hold on, hold on, just a
Little bit longer) Mmm, baby
(Hold on, hold on, just a
Little bit longer) Mmm, baby
I started school in a worn
Torn dress that somebody threw out
(Somebody threw out) i knew the way it felt
To always live in doubt
To be without the simple things
So afraid my friends would see
The guilt in me
Ah, don't think that I don't need you
(I'll always love you)
Don't think I don't wanna please, you
But no child of mine will be bearing
(I'll always love you)
The name of shame I've been wearing
(Love you)
Love child, love child, never quite as good
(Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on)
Afraid, ashamed, misunderstood
(Just a little bit longer, love child)
But, I'll always love you
(Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on)
I'll always love you
(Just a little bit longer, love child)
I'll always love you
(Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on)
I'll always love you
(Just a little bit longer, love child)
I'll always love you
(Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on)
I'll always love you
(Just a little bit longer, love child)
You, you
(Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on)
I'll always love you
(Just a little bit longer, love child)
Always love you
(Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on)
You (Just a little bit longer, love child)
You (Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on)
I'll always love you
(Just a little bit longer, love child)
Take a look, take a look at me
(Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on)
Love child, love child
(Just a little bit longer, love child)
I'll always love you
(Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on)
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh, ah)
You think that I don't feel love
(I'll always love you)
But what I feel for you is real love
