[Verse 1]
It's not just a love affair
It's all or nothing
Do I bet it all on love
Or change and freak out?

When the chances come my way
Will they up and disappear?
Will it ever go my way
Or am I out of here?

[Refrain]
There'll be tears before your bedtime
You mark my words
You wanted more than I could give you
You wanted more than you could have

[Verse 2]
It's not just a love affair
It's now or never
(Whoa)
Could I give it all to you?
(Ooh, yeah)
Is that what we're about?

If I hold you, will you stay
Or will you up and disappear?
Be forever and a day
Like your letter said
[Refrain]
There'll be tears before your bedtime
(Whoa)
You mark my words
You wanted more than I could give you
You wanted more than you could have

[Bridge]

[Verse 3]
When the chances come my way
(Whoa)
Will they up and disappear?
Will it ever go my way
Or am I out of here?

[Coda]
There'll be tears before your bedtime
(There'll be tears before your bedtime, honey)
You mark my words
You wanted more than I could give you
You wanted more than you could have
(Love's growing stronger every day)
More than you could have
(Love's growing stronger in every way)
More than you could have
(Love's growing stronger every day)
More than you could have
(Love's growing stronger in every way)
