Love Child Lyrics - Love Child - Diana Ross

Tenement slum 

Ooh, ooh, ooh... aaaahhh 

You think that I don't feel love 

What I feel for you is real love 

In other's eyes I see reflected 

A hurt, scorned, rejected 

Love child 

Never meant to be 

Love Child 

Born in poverty 

Love Child 

Never meant to be 

Love Child 

Take a look at me

Prime Day concert by Amazon Music will be headlined by Taylor Swift 

Started my life 

In a old, cold, run-down tenement slum (tenement slum) 

My father left he never even married mama 

I shared the guilt my mama knew 

So afraid that others knew I had no name 

This love we're contemplatin' 

Is worth the pain of waitin' 

We'll only end up hatin' 

The child we may be creatin' 

Love Child 

Never meant to be 

Love Child 

(Scorned by) Society 

Love Child 

Always second best 

Love Child 

(Different from) Different from the rest

(Hold on hold on just a little bit longer) Mmmmm baby 

(Hold on hold on just a little bit longer) Mmmmm baby 

I started school 

In a worn, torn dress that somebody threw out 

(Somebody threw out) 

I knew the way it felt to always live in doubt 

To be without the simple things 

So afraid my friends would see the guilt in me 

Don't think that I don't need ya 

Don't think I don't want to please ya 

But no child of mine will be bearing 

The name of shame I've been wearing 

Love Child 

Love Child 

Never quite as good 

Afraid, ashamed 

Misunderstood 

But I'll always love you 

Always love you 

I'll always love you 

Always love you
