If i gave my heart to you girl
What would you do with it, uh
Tell mw what what would you do with it oh baby
If i gave my heart to you girl
What would you do with it, uh
Tell mw what what would you do with it oh baby
I wanna know
If I'm looking in the right direction?
Am i receiving your full attention?
Or am I wasting my time?
I wanna know
Do you promise to love me dearly?
And never go away and leave me with just bitterness inside?
And I'm not ashamed for being so cautious
For love ain't a game, no it ain't a game, so
If I gave my heart to you what would you do with it?
Would you tear it apart or would you look after it?
If I gave my heart to you what would you do with it?
Would you tear it apart or would you treasure it?
Oh what is the point in starting something you can't continue
With a broken heart first day can't help you
So you got to be sure from the start
For my heart is not made of unbreakable material
While thinking about love its got to be mutual or else someone is sure to be hurt
So don't think I'm vain for asking these questions
For love ain't a game, no it ain't a game, so
If I gave my heart to you what would you do with it?
Would you tear it apart or would you look after it?
If I gave my heart to you what would you do with it?
Would you tear it apart or would you treasure it?
Oh, baby somebody tell me
If I gave my heart to you, girl
So what would you do with it, oh baby
Tell me what would you do with it, oh, yeah
Well I hope that you're sure
That what you say affects and not illusions
And you possess the right solutions
To be sure, we will get through
For so many before me have given their heart away completely
Without thinking over the matter deeply then realised when its too late
That love can bring joy but then again can be painful
For love ain't a game, you know it ain't a game, so
If I gave my heart to you what would you do with it?
Would you tear it apart or would you look after it?
If I gave my heart to you what would you do with it?
Would you tear it apart or would you treasure it?
Oh baby
If I gave my heart to you, girl
Tell me what would you do with it?
Oh baby
Somebody tell me, tell me, tell me
If I gave my heart to you girl
Tell me what would you do with it?
What would you do with it, uh
Tell mw what what would you do with it oh baby
If i gave my heart to you girl
What would you do with it, uh
Tell mw what what would you do with it oh baby
