The Weakness In Me

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
I’m not the sort of person who falls in and quickly out of loveBut to you I gave my affection right from the startI have a lover who loves meHow could I break such a heartBut still you get my attentionWhy do you come hereWhen you know I’ve got troubles enoughWhy do you call meWhen you know I can’t answer the phoneYou made me lieWhen I don’t want toMake someone else some kind of an unknowing foolMake me stayWhen I should notAre you so strong or is all the weakness in meWhy do you come hereAnd pretend to be just passing byBut I need see youAnd I mean to hold you tightlyFeeling guilty, worriedWaking from a tormented sleepOhh, this old love has me boundBut the new love cuts me deepIf I choose nowI’ll lose outOne of you has to fallI need youYou, babyWhy do you come hereWhen you know I’ve got troubles enoughWhy do you call meWhen you know I can’t answer the phoneAnd made me lieWhen I don’t want toMake someone else some kind of an unkowing foolMake me stayWhen I should notAre you so strong or is all the weakness in meWhy do you come hereAnd pretend to be just passing byBut I need see youAnd I mean hold you tightly
