[Verse 1
I've been trying
To make you love me
But everything I try
Just takes you further from me
You don't love me, no-no (Ooh-ooh)
So you treat me cruel (Baby, I need you)
But no matter how you hurt me
I'll always be a fool
[Chorus
If you don't want me (Forever)
If you don't need me (Forever)
If you don't love me (Forever)
For a little while
I've got to make you love me
For a little while
Yes, got to make you love me

[Verse 2
I've got to stop it
There should be a law (Baby, I need you)
But no matter how you put me down
I love you more
I feel so helpless (Baby, I need you)
And it ain't funny (You know that I need you)
'Cause deep down inside I know
You're never gonna love me
[Chorus
If you don't want me (Forever)
If you don't need me (Forever)
If you can't love me (Forever)
For a little while
I've got to make you love me
Take me for a little while
Girl, I've got to make you love me

[Instrumental Break

[Outro
Take me for a little while
I've got to make you love me
Take me for a little while, ooh
Girl, I've got to make you love me
Take me for a little while, ooh
I've got to make you love me
