SWEPT AWAY
LYRICS & MELODY & MUSIC BY RUTH M. WARE

MUSIC
VERSE 1
Seems I've been misled and I don't understand
Why you choose to play I only want to please you
You say loves for real but you've got a wind that you can't shield
VERSE 2
You pick me up then you let me down
Up and down you twirl my love around
So I had to boy make sure if our love would ever endure
So I built a castle around you boy
Built it so strong so no one could blow it down
CHORUS
Every time I build love up you tear it down swept away
I've been swept away ayee I've been swept away
I'd do anything that you want me to
But boy you've got to give me your love too
I've been swept away (here comes) thunder and pain, I've been swept away
VERSE 3
I noticed since the day we met you've been trying to play hard to get
So I had to play your game and fake it
It was a chance I had to take
VERSE 4
I had to come on strong cause boy I had to find out what turned you on
So I built a fort around my heart, but then you came along and you tore it down
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Baby how can I make you understand that I love you, and I need you
I wanted to know what turned you on
Just like the wind you come and go, your blowin' my mind
CHORUS/AD-LIB
Every time I build love up you tear it down
I, I, I want to know what turns you on
I've been swept away, I've been swept away
(here comes) thunder and pain
I thought our love was built on solid ground but every time I build love up you tear it down
Oho I love you, and I need you, I wanted to know what turned you on
I've been swept away ayee
Swept away in a hurricane, swept away in a hurrincane (here comes) thunder and pain
All through the night I hold my pillow tight
Thinking of you in a very special way
Your not around, your not around, your not around baby

(c)1994 Ruth M. Ware (BMI)
