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 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 need to see you

and i need 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 when 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 need to see you

and i need to hold you

tightly
