(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
