Joan Armatrading - The Weakness In Me

Im not the sort of person who falls in and quickly out of love
But to you, I gave my affection, right from the start.
If i have a lover who loves me - how could I break such a heart?
Yet still you get my attention, right from the start.

Why do you come here, when you know Ive got troubles enough?
Why do you call me, when you know I can't answer the phone?
Make me lie when I dont want to,
And make someone else some kind of an 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?

I need to see you - I need to hold you - tighhhht-lyyy.

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 ...
