Woke up this morning and I knew I'd be late Somehow it came as no surprise I saw the way she was looking at me I saw no mercy in her eyes She gave me love without mercy Her arms don't want to let go Love without mercy Am I complaining? Mercy no I have no trouble sleeping at night And I've got a problem on my mind But she gives me something precious & sweet It solves that problem every time She gave me love without mercy Her arms don't want to let go Love without mercy Am I complaining? Mercy, no When I feel like this world wants no part of me She knows I need love and not sympathy Love without mercy Her arms don't want to let go Love without mercy Am I complaining? Mercy, no Love without mercy Her arms don't want to let go Love without mercy Am I complaining? Mercy, no
