Weakness In Me

(Album: I Rise - 2014)

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
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

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
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 or is the weakness in me

Why do you come here
And pretend to be just passing by
When I mean to see you
I mean to hold you tightly, baby
Yeah

Feeling guilty, worried
Waking from tormented sleep
This old love has me bound
But this new love cuts deep
If I choose now, I lose out
'Cause one of you has to fall
'Cause I need you, hmm-mm, you

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
Make me lie, when I don't want to
Make someone else some kind of unknowing fool
You make me stay, when I should not
You so strong or is the weakness in me

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 so strong or is the weakness in me

Why do you come here
And pretend to be just passing by
When I need to see you
I need to hold you tightly, baby
Ooh

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
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

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
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 or is the weakness in me

Why do you come here
And pretend to be just passing by
When I need to see you
I need to hold you tightly, baby
Oh-oh, yeah-yeah
