10 Things I Hate About You The Weakness In Me-joan Armatrading Lyrics

The Weakness In Me-joan Armatrading Lyrics

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 and I don't want to

And make someone else some kind of unknowing 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 passing by

But I mean to see you

And I mean to hold you, tightly



Feeling 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 and I don't want to

And make someone else some kind of unknowing 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 passing by

But I mean to see you

And I mean to hold you, tightly
