aretha franklin - half a love lyrics

[intro]
well, oh yes, mhm
oh baby, oh, oh baby
yeah, make it pretty for me now
do that for me

[chorus]
half a love just won’t do
it just ain’t good enough, no, oh oh oh oh
half a love (just won’t do), it will not do
it just ain’t good enough, no, it ain’t, baby

[verse 1]
don’t turn me on just to turn me off
we’ve got to work this out together
don’t build me up just to bring me down, hey
tell me that you’re not that kind of fella

[chorus]
because half a love (just won’t do), it won’t do
it just ain’t good enough, no no, no no, no no, no no, no no
half a love (just won’t do), it just won’t do
just ain’t good enough, no, no no

[verse 2]
don’t squeeze me baby if you can’t hold on
oh yeah, i want a love that’s truly mine
now don’t you make me weak (weak) when i feel so strong, yeah
now that i got love all mine
[pre+chorus]
let’s not get started if we can’t go all the way
don’t play with fire if you’re afraid of getting burned
don’t play the teacher if you’re not willing to learn
i want you to stop (hey), look (hey), listen to me (hey)
hear my plea, yeah, hear my plea

[chorus]
because half a love just won’t do
(just ain’t good enough) it ain’t good enough, not for me
no no no no no no no no no
half a love (just won’t do), it just won’t do
it just ain’t good enough

[bridge]
mmm, hey, hey, hey, hey
it won’t do, it won’t do, it won’t do, it won’t do
hey, hey, hey, hey
it won’t do, it won’t do, it won’t do, it won’t do
hey, hey, hey, hey
it won’t do, it won’t do, it won’t do, it won’t do
hey, hey, hey, hey
it won’t do

[pre+chorus]
let’s not get started if we can’t go all the way
don’t play with fire if you’re afraid of getting burned
don’t play the teacher if you’re not willing to learn
i want you to stop (hey), look (hey), listen to me (hey)
hey, hear my plea, yeah, yeah, hear my plea
[chorus]
(half a love) half a love (just won’t do) will not do
(just ain’t good enough) it ain’t good enough, no no, no, no
(half a love) half a love (just won’t do), will not do
(just ain’t good enough) it ain’t good enough, not for me, no no, oh oh oh

[outro]
hey, hey
it won’t do, it won’t do, it won’t do, it won’t do
hey, hey, hey, hey
(bring it down to a low gravy, yeah)
it won’t do, it won’t do, it won’t do, it won’t do (nah, baby)
hey, hey, hey, hey (nah, baby)
it won’t do, it won’t do, it won’t do, it won’t do
(i don’t want a part+time lover)
hey, hey, hey, hey
i want a man, that i can truly call mine
who’ll be right here with me
and give me that good ol’ lovin’, right on time, yeah
hey, baby, there’s a whole lotta things in love that i can understand
but one of them that i cannot is sharing a man
said that a half a love, no, will not do, it won’t do
it just ain’t good enough, no, oh no
