Love Me By Name

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Patti Austin] I tried so hard to be carefree Rolling out of someone's bed Into the sunshine But the sun coming up Does not always bring the light And somehow I feel that it's just not right It's not for me You know it's been so long Since I've been loved by name [Chorus: Patti Austin] Love me by name Love me by name (Love me) Come on, come on, (Love me) come on [Verse 2: Patti Austin] I feel afraid I don't know why You're surely not the first I've had Who held me gently, yeah Oh, who, who took the sweet time To ask me about me Well, maybe this time Oh God, oh God, let it be Oh, and it's been, it's been so, so, so long Since I've been loved by name [Chorus: Patti Austin] Love me by name Love me by name (Love me) Come on, come on, (Love me) come on Love me by name Love me by name (Love me) Come on, come on, (Love me) come on Love me
