Beatin' Round The Bush

(album: Let's Live For Today - 1967)

You tell me that you're going to leave me alone
I gotta find a way to make you stay home
You ask me to explain
And if my feelings are the same

Yeah, quit beating round the, quit beating 'round the, quit beating 'round the bush

I know now that I haven't got too much time
I gotta tell you exactly what's on my mind
You say I've waited too long
Don't matter-uh now what is wrong

Yeah, quit beating round the, quit beating 'round the, quit beating 'round the bush

All I have ever wanted was to hold you in my arms and not explain my love for you
Can't you read inside my eyes the love I have that will remain forever?

Is that what you wanted to know?
And that I've told you "please don't go"

Oh, quit beating round the, quit beating 'round the, quit beating 'round the bush
Yeah, quit beating round the, quit beating 'round the, quit beating 'round the bush...
