I Can't Quit You

(album: The Jealous Kind - 1980)

I quit drinking I quit smoking
I quit lying and I quit joking
I quit some things I really ought to do
I quit teasing I quit cheating
I quit all my Midnight creeping
But I can't quit you

I quit hurting I quit hating
I quit fooling and I quit wasting
I quit some things I really ought to do
I quit fussing and I quit cussing
I quit everything disgusting
But I can't quit you

I tried and I tried, I cried and I cried
But nothing seems to work
Instead of things getting better
I swear they're getting worse

I quit rolling and I quit rocking
I quit everything that's shocking
But I can't quit you.

I quit hurting I quit hating
I quit fooling and I quit wasting
I quit some things I really ought to do
I quit fussing and I quit cussing
I quit everything disgusting
But I can't quit you

I tried and I tried, I cried and I cried
But nothing seems to work
Instead of things getting better
I swear they're getting worse

I quit rolling and I quit rocking
I quit everything that's shocking
But I can't quit you
But I can't quit you
