The Weakness In Me Lyrics

(Joan Armatrading)
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
CHORUS:
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
You
make me lie when I don't want to
And you make someone else some kind of an
unknowing fool
And 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
Oh
this old love has me bound
But the new love cuts deep
If I choose now
I'll lose out
Oh one of you has to fall
And I need you and you
CHORUS
