don't try to please me

you could have said no

instead of just going through the motions

how far will you go

with this over the top devotion?

the road of least resistance

won't take our love the distance

baby

it's no good to me

unless you fight for all you can be

if you see yourself as small

then that's how tall you will be

you can't measure up at all

if you're just trying to please me

don't try to please me

so take a big breath

it's your space as much as mine

yeah

we're at our best

when we're laying it on the line

yeah

i don't need no cushion

i love it when you're pushin'

cos baby

when you're feeling strong

that's what really turns me on

if you see yourself as small

then that's how tall you will be

you can't measure up at all

if you're just trying to please me

don't try to please me
