Love Child - Album Version (Stereo)

Tenement slum
 Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
 Ahhhhh
 You think that I don't feel love
 But what I feel for you is real love
 In other's eyes I see reflected
 A hurt, scorned, rejected
 Love child, never meant to be
 Love child, born in poverty
 Love child, never meant to be
 Love child, take a look at me
 Started my life
 In an old, cold run down tenement slum (Tenement slum)
 My father left, he never even married mom
 I shared the guilt my mama knew
 So afraid that others knew I had no name
 Ahhhh, ah
 This love we're contemplating
 Isn't worth the pain of waiting
 We'll only end up hating
 The child we maybe creating
 Love child, never meant to be
 Love child, (scorned by) society
 Love child, always second best
 Love child, different from the rest (Hold on, hold on, just a little bit)
 Mm, baby (Hold on, hold on, just a little bit)
 Mm, baby (Hold on, hold on, just a little bit)
 I started school
 In a worn, torn dress that somebody threw out(Somebody threw out)
 I knew the way it felt, to always live in doubt
 To be without the simple things
 So afraid my friends would see the guilt in me
 Ahhh, ah
 Don't think that I don't need you
 Don't think I don't wanna please you
 But no child of mine'll be bearing
 The name of shame I've been wearing
 Love child, love child, never quite as good
 Afraid, ashamed, misunderstood
 But I'll always love you (Love child)
 I'll always love you (Just a little bit longer)
 I'll always love you (Wait, wait, won't you wait, just hold on)
 I'll always love you (Just a little bit longer, love child)
 I'll always love you (Wait, wait, won't you wait, just hold on)
 I'll always love you (Just a little bit longer)
