Don't Don't Tell Me No

Sophie B. Hawkins

I never thought that I could

Crash upon your sandy shores

And like the feeling of your warm security

It's not like me



Now I come with strange excitement

At your very touch I'm frightened

Don't I ask too much you tell me

'Long as I can keep on yelling



Don't don't tell me no

I want you to take my hand

Never ever let it go

Even if I make you mad

Darlin' every bit of love give

You will get more back

If you believe it



Who cares if it's forever

There's no time when we're together

Who cares if we don't worry

We don't even have to hurry



This is our world awaiting

For the sweetest penetrating

Love that we have found

Why don't we splatter it around and around



Don't don't tell me no

I want you to take my hand

Never ever let it go

Even if I make you mad

Darlin' every bit of love give

You will get more back

If you believe it



Don't don't tell me no

I want you to take my hand

Never ever let it go

Even if I make you mad

Darlin' every bit of love give

You will get more back

If you believe it



Why don't you stay

You make me laugh like it's forever

And cry like I have never

You heal my pain

Why can't we pray

Let's take the time to feel the weather

And love the world together

It's the only way



Don't don't tell me no

I want you to take my hand

Never ever let it go

Even if I make you mad

Darlin' every bit of love give

You will get more back

If you believe it

(repeat twice)
