"Straight Talking" lyrics - SHEENA EASTON

SHEENA EASTON
"Straight Talking"
(Sheena Easton / Greg Mathieson / Trevor Veitch)

Don't talk in riddles, put it down the middle
You know that she has a good time
Boy your surprise is you take no compromises
Better put it right on the line

You want a fixture, just a pretty picture
Someone you can nail on your wall
You try to use her, you're gonna lose her
And find yourself with nothing at all

Hey you, what you're trying to do?
Don't you know this woman's heard it all before, move on, take your love and run
Hold on to forever, baby now it's up to you

If you can't make it don't try to fake it
Just take your finger out of the pie
When you deliver she comes on like a river
Rushing when the water is high

She needs a fighter, someone to excite her
A runaway where nothing can stop
Swim while she's going go where she's going
Hold you back and get what you got

Hey you, what you're trying to do?
Don't you know this woman's heard it all before, move on, take your love and run
Hold on to forever, baby now it's up to you

Hey you, what you're trying to do?
Don't you know this woman's heard it all before, move on, take your love and run
Hold on to forever, baby now it's up to you

What you're trying to do?
Don't you know this woman's heard it all before, move on, take your love and run
Hold on to forever, baby now it's up to you

What you're trying to do?
Don't you know this woman's heard it all before, move on, take your love and run
Hold on to forever, baby now it's up to you
