Love Won't Take Me Out - En Vogue

I had a love

And I had pain

Best believe

They come hand in hand

Cause I’m a soldier

For the love brigade

I’m prepared to do battle

With anything

I have control of my life you see

Let’s keep it real not to make believe

I won’t get caught with my foot in my mouth

And I won’t let love take me out

I have the power to do as I please

I take the blows and I do it with ease

I dish it out very hard, there’s no doubt

And I won’t let love take me out

I had to be

A fool indeed

To let someone

Break me down to my knees

I was wreckless

With my heart you see

There’s no rule for that in my world

And yet that’s plan

Say bye-bye to the teary brown eyes

And the big sad face with an upside down smile

It’s so beneath me, it’s so beneath

Say bye-bye to the meaningless days

And the loneliest nights

Just wasting my mind

It’s so beneath me, it can’t control me I have control of my life you see

Let’s keep it real not to make believe

I won’t get caught with my foot in my mouth

And I won’t let love take me out

I have the power to do as I please

I take the blows and I do it with ease

I dish it out very hard, there’s no doubt

And I won’t let love take me out

I have control of my life you see

Let’s keep it real not to make believe

I won’t get caught with my foot in my mouth

And I won’t let love take me out

I have the power to do as I please

I take the blows and I do it with ease

I dish it out very hard, there’s no doubt

And I won’t let love take me out

Won’t take me out, won’t take me out

Won’t take me out, won’t take me out

Won’t take me out, won’t take me out

Me out, me out, me out

Time to rise

Time to shine

Never again

Cause I decline

To be a victim

Of a broken heart

Cause I found the goddess in me And now I leave my mark

I have control of my life you see

Let’s keep it real not to make believe

I won’t get caught with my foot in my mouth

And I won’t let love take me out

I have the power to do as I please

I take the blows and I do it with ease

I dish it out very hard, there’s no doubt

And I won’t let love take me out

I have the power to do as I please

(I won’t let it take me out)

I dish it out very hard, there’s no doubt

And I won’t let love take me out
