I'm Gettin' Tired Of Losing You

(album: Linda On My Mind - 1975)

Well, here you are again just like
So many times before down on your knees
You make a promise just like you've made
And never kept before to me.

You're telling me you're sorry
For the things you say you didn't mean to do
But old friend you'd better make it
Because I'm getting tired of losing you.

I've lost you to the booze and bars
And uptown girls a dozen times before
For years I've tried to fake it
But I ain't a gonna take it anymore.

Though I hoped that you'll rehearse your line
You're gonna say and pray it will come true
'Cause there won't be no next time
Buddy I'm getting tired of losing you.

But darling please please don't leave me
I know I did you wrong before
Just like you said I would.
Oh darling please please believe me
If you'll take me back just one more time
I promise I'll be good.

Well, here you are again just like
So many times before down on your knees
You make a promise just like you've made
And never kept before to me...
