The Weakness In Me

I'm not the sort of person who falls

In and quickly out of love

But to you, I gave my affection

Right from the start

I have a lover who loves me

How could I break such a heart?

Yet, still you get my attention

Why do you come here

When you know I've got troubles enough?

Why do you call me

When you know I can't answer the phone?

Make me lie when I don't want to

And make someone else some kind of unknowin' fool

You make me stay when I should not

Are you so strong, or is all the weakness in me?

Why do you come here

And pretend to be just passin' by?

But I need to see you

And I need to hold you, tightly

Feelin' guilty, worried

Waking from tormented sleep

This old love has me bound

But the new love cuts deep

If I choose now, I'll lose out

One of you has to fall

And I need you, and you

Why do you come here

When you know I've got troubles enough?

Why do you call me

When you know I can't answer the phone?

Make me lie when I don't want to

And make someone else some kind of unknowin' fool

You make me stay when I should not

Are you so strong, or is all the weakness in me?

Why do you come here

And pretend to be just passin' by?

But I need to see you

And I need to hold you tightly
