The Weakness In Me

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
Yet still you gained my attention

R: Why do you come here when you know I've got trouble enough
Why do you call me when you know I can't answer the phone
You make me lie and I don't want to
You 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 bound but the new love cuts deep
if I choose now, I'll lose out, one of you has to fall
But I need you, and you.
