You Beat it Out of Me (read please)

by Erica Hughes - Libra

I only had eyes for you,
-- you beat them black and blue,
I told you I'd be true,
-- you said I lied to you.
My heart was filled with love,
-- you beat it out of me.
For you I was filled with so much trust,
-- you stabbed it in my gut,
My body was yours to keep,
-- you drug it down the street,
my heart was filled with love,
-- you beat it out of me,
I gave you my entire world,
-- you plagued it with disease and war,
I handed you my heart,
-- you dropped it on the floor,
My heart was full of love,
-- you beat it out of me,
I said I love you only,
-- I guess I'm too blind to see,
I only have eyes for you,
-- you beat them black and blue.
My lips are here to kiss,
-- you give them your two fists,
I only have eyes for you
-- you beat them black and blue. . .
I'm too blinded to see,
so I gave you my love,
-- and you beat it out of me.
