Des'ree, born Desiree Weeks on November 30, 1968 in London, England was one of Britain's most successful pop/soul vocalists throughout the 1990s. She changed her name from Desiree Weeks because she preferred a two-syllable name. In 1994 the hit single "You Gotta Be" hit Billboard Top 5 and was a hit in the UK three times. It also allowed Des'ree to break into America. "You Gotta Be" was also a major hit in the United States, and it was featured in the movie The Next Karate Kid, starring Hilary Swank.

Nothing To Lose Lyrics

Des'ree

Hold me don't let go, cos I'm revelling in insecurity
It's so unlike me, yes I know.
But what am I to do with how I feel.
I just keep on wondering, pondering what to do.
I beat up on myself and everybody else, I'm so confused.
You say let's compromise, head for the skies.
Nothing to lose. I've got nothing to lose.
So please don't leave me here. I'll be lost without you.
Don't make me stay. Cos I'll only be in the way.
Don't say I told you so and that
my argument is wearing thin.
Sometimes I'm ugly, beautiful.
Say I'm hormonal and I'll punch you in.
Cos I just can't make up my mind any time,
I'm not like you.
Don't put words in my mouth
or I'm heading south right on cue.
You said let's compromise head for the skies.
Nothing to lose. I've got nothing to lose.
So please don't leave me here. I'll be lost without you.
Don't make me stay. Cos I'll only be in the way.
Just can't make up my mind, anytime,
I'm not like you.
Don't put words in my mouth
or I'm heading south right on cue.
You say let's compromise, head for the skies.
Nothing to lose. I've got nothing to lose.
So please don't leave me here. I'll be lost without you.
Don't make me stay. Cos I'll only be in the way
