Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm not the sort of person who falls
In and quickly out of love
But to you, I give my affection
Right from the start
[Verse 2]
If I have a lover who loves me
How can I break such a heart?
But you can get my attention
Right from the start
[Verse 3]
How could you come here when you know I got troubles enough?
How could you call me when you know I can't answer the phone?
[Verse 4]
Make me lie when I don't want to
Make someone else some kind of unknowing fool
Make me stay when I should not
Are you so strong to raise the weakness in me?
[Verse 5]
Why do you come here
And pretend to be just passin' by?
But I mean to see you
I mean to hold you tightly, baby
[Verse 6]
Feelin' guilty, worried
Wakin' from tormented sleep
This old love can't be bound
But this new love cuts deep
[Verse 7]
If I choose now, I lose out
'Cause one of you have to fall
'Cause I need you
Ooh, you
[Verse 8]
Why do you come here when you know I got troubles enough?
Why do you call me when you know I can't answer the phone?
[Verse 9]
Make me lie when I don't want to
Make someone else some kind of unknowing fool
Make me stay when I should not
You're so strong to raise the weakness in me
[Verse 10]
Make me lie when I don't want to
Make someone else some kind of unknowing fool
Make me stay when I should not
You're so strong to raise the weakness in me
[Verse 11]
Why do you come here and pretend to be just passin' by?
When I need to see you
I need to hold you tightly, baby
Ooh
[Verse 12]
I'm not the sort of person who falls
In and quickly out of love
But to you, I give my affection
Right from the start
[Verse 13]
If I have a lover who loves me
How can I break such a heart?
But you can get my attention
Right from the start
[Verse 14]
How could you come here when you know I got troubles enough?
How could you call me when you know I can't answer the phone?
[Verse 15]
Make me lie when I don't want to
Make someone else some kind of unknowing fool
Make me stay when I should not
You're so strong to raise the weakness in me
[Verse 16]
Why do you come here and pretend to be just passin' by?
When I need to see you
I need to hold you tightly, baby
Ooh, yeah, yeah
