The Andantes - Love Child lyrics

(Tenement slum Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ah) You think that I don't feel love But what I feel for you is real love In those 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, rundown 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 Ah, this love we're contemplating Is worth the pain of waiting We'll only end up hating The child we may be creating Love child, never meant to be (Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on) Love child (Scorned by) society Love child, always second best (Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on) Love child, different from the rest (Hold on, hold on, just a little bit longer) Mmm, baby (Hold on, hold on, just a little bit longer) Mmm, baby 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 Ah, don't think that I don't need you Don't think I don't wanna please you But no child of mine will be bearing The name of shame I've been wearing Love child, love child, never quite as good (Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on) Afraid, ashamed, misunderstood (Just a little bit longer, love child) But I'll always love you (Wait, wait, won't you wait now, 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 now, hold on) Always love you (Just a little bit longer, love child) I'll always love you (Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on) Always love you (Just a little bit longer, love child) You, you, you (Wait, wait, won't you wait now, hold on) I'll always love you (Just a little bit longer, love child)
