Conway Twitty And Loretta Lynn – Lead Me On lyrics

Once I made a promise
That I’d never, lead you on
But I feel, a yearn to love you
Even though I know it’s wrong

You’ll have, to take my hand
And lead me slowly through this door
I’ll be wrong, in what I’m doin’
I can’t refuse you anymore

Lead me on, and take control of how I feel
I can’t do this on my own
‘Cause it’s against my will
I need love, warm and tender
In a way I’ve never known
If you want me I’ll go with you
But you’ll have to lead me on

— Instrumental —

Lead me on, and take control of how I feel
I can’t do this on my own
‘Cause it’s against my will
But I need love, warm and tender
In a way I’ve never known
If you want me I’ll go with you
But you’ll have to lead me on…
