Ooh, you say you’re feelin’ nervous
The least thing makes you cry
Sounds like a real bad case
Of a girl who needs a guy

I think I know the perfect cure
The one you ought to try
Take a heart that’s full of love
This you can rely

Now if you need some quick reaction
Take this heart of mine
And if you need some satisfaction
Take this heart of mine

And if you’re tired of being lonely
Take this heart of mine
I think I can help you if you’ll only
Take this heart of mine

I may not be a doctor
Who can cure your ills
Goodbye to all those different drugs
And hard to swallow pills

My remedy is older
Than the tale of Jack and Jill
My prescription is the kind
You love to have refilled

If you need some quick reaction
Take this heart of mine
And if you need some satisfaction
Take this heart of mine

Baby, you’re tired of being lonely
Take this heart of mine
Honey, I can help you if you’ll only
Take this heart of mine, yeah

Got a lovin’ side
That’s pure as gold
Take it, it’s yours
Have and to hold
And if you do that, baby
After we grow old
Ooh, it’s the greatest love story
That’s ever told
Oh, baby

Ooh, medicine won’t cure you
Just relieve you at the most
But relief is only temporary
Pretty soon it won’t

But love can last a lifetime
When two hearts are close
Take as much as you want to
There is no overdose

If you need some quick reaction
Take this heart of mine
Baby, if you need some satisfaction
Take this heart of mine

If you’re tired of being lonely
Take this heart of mine
I can help you if you’ll only
Take this heart of mine

Take it
