|
Let's not fight it anymore
|
Unpack the bags and close the door
|
I'll never leave you, no no
|
Though you lied right from the start
|
I can't convince my stupid heart
|
Not to believe you, no no
|
You've got two good men strung out
|
And there's not the slightest doubt
|
That other men have loved you before
|
But you work your thing so well
|
I dream of Heaven and I live in Hell
|
Till I can't take it anymore
|
Take it anymore
|
|
If I had one ounce of pride
|
I'd stand up or step aside
|
But girl love you (can't you tell it)
|
So I'll accept the crumbs you drop
|
'Cause I'm a fool and I can't stop
|
Or rise above you, no no
|
Let him speak up for himself
|
I speak for me and no one else
|
'Cause I'm a beggar knockin' on your door
|
But you work your thing so well
|
I dream of Heaven and I live in Hell
|
Till I can't take it anymore
|
Take it anymore
|
|
I'm too far gone to turn around
|
To lift myself up off the ground
|
And start all over, over and over
|
Now he or I must win or lose
|
No matter which one you may choose
|
You'll be in clover (you know you will)
|
While you're makin' up your mind
|
I'll be prayin all the time
|
Prayin' that you'll never, never ever let me go
|
But you work your thing so well
|
I dream of Heaven and live in Hell
|
Till I can't take it anymore
|
Take it anymore
|
|
But you work your thing so well
|
I dream of Heaven and live in Hell
|
Till I can't take it anymore
|
Take it anymore
|
Till I can't take it anymore
|
Take it anymore
|
