[Lyric] Dont Pity Me (Thelma Houston)

[Verse 1]
(Ooh, ooh...)
Don't pity me, if you don't want my love
'Cause I want your love, not your sympathy
Tell it like it is
If you don't feel, yeah, what you felt at the start
Why live a lie just to spare my heart?

[Chorus 1]
'Cause baby, I would rather see ya happy and free
Than for you to be uptight and stay here with me
Ain't got no chains on you
So go on and do what you gotta do, yeah, mm

[Verse 2]
(Ooh, ooh...)
Don't pity me, if you don't want my love
'Cause I want your love, and not your sympathy
And don't let me breeze, no no
(Let's split your love, if your heart isn't there)
Hey, baby (ooh...) don't you waste my time
Not if you really care
[Chorus 2]
'Cause baby, when it comes to love therе's no in-between
Love is like a traffic light, it's еither red or green
So take my love with you
And go on and do what you gotta do, yeah

[Verse 1]
(Ooh...)
Don't pity me, no no no, if you don't want my love, no baby
'Cause I want your love, and not your sympathy
Tell it like it is
If you don't feel, hear me now, what you felt at the start
Then why live a lie just to spare my heart...?
