You got me on this one…….I made a CD for you but it had too many love songs and we are disengaged – but I put this song on and took it off about a dozen times – complete coincidence you offered it up today? – sometimes things are just too close for comfort – I have no comfort – leave me be!….I’m disengaging – my skin is crawling – you’re skin is crawling – but you hold the cards on this one and the choice was yours to make – so don’t sing me a sad love song:

The Weakness in Me<\/strong><\/span> <\/span>by Joan Armatrading\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I’m not the sort of person who falls in and quickly out of love<\/o><\/span><\/p>\n

But to you, I give my affection, right from the start.<\/o><\/span><\/p>\n

I have a lover who loves me – how could I break such a heart?<\/o><\/span><\/p>\n

Yet still you get my attention.<\/o><\/span><\/p>\n


<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Why do you come here, when you know I’ve got troubles enough?<\/span><\/p>\n

Why do you call me, when you know I can’t answer the phone?<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>And make me lie when I don’t want to,<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span>And make someone else some kind of an unknowing fool?<\/span><\/p>\n

Make me stay when I should not?<\/span><\/p>\n

If you’re so strong then resolve the weakness in me.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why do you come here, and pretend to be just passing by?<\/span><\/p>\n

I need to see you – I need to hold you – tightly.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/o><\/span><\/p>\n

Feeling guilty,<\/span><\/p>\n

And I’m worried, and I’m waking from a tormented sleep<\/span><\/p>\n

‘Cause this old love, you know it has me bound,<\/span><\/p>\n

But this new love cuts so deep.<\/span><\/p>\n

If I choose now, I’m bound to lose out;<\/span><\/p>\n

One of you is gonna have to fall…<\/span><\/p>\n

I need you, baby.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/o><\/span><\/p>\n

Why do you come here, when you know I’ve got troubles enough?<\/span><\/p>\n

Why do you call me, when you know I can’t answer the phone?<\/span><\/p>\n

And make me lie when I don’t want to,<\/span><\/p>\n

And make someone else some kind of an unknowing fool?<\/span><\/p>\n

Make me stay when I should not? <\/o><\/span><\/p>\n

If you’re so strong then resolve the weakness in me. <\/o><\/span><\/p>\n

Why do you come here, and pretend to be just passing by?<\/span><\/p>\n

I need to see you – I need to hold you – tightly.<\/span><\/p>\n
