(Ellie Greenwich / Mike Rashkow)

|
You say you love me
|
More than you could ever love her,
|
But circumstance has made you stay by her side
|
You'll never leave her
|
God knows you've tried
|
But I understand
|
A man ain't nothing but a man
|
|
Why do I need you when we can't be together?
|
What good is "I want you", when you're passing me by?
|
I can't keep on saying "I love you" forever
|
What good is "I love you", when you're saying goodbye
|
|
No-one has ever made me so very happy
|
When we're together, baby
|
Everything is all right
|
But here on my pillow
|
Alone at night
|
My heart keeps on crying?
|
Something's telling me you're lying
|
|
Why do I need you when we can't be together?
|
What good is "I want you", when you're passing me by?
|
I can't keep on saying "I love you" forever
|
What good is "I love you", when you're saying goodbye
|
|
Why should I still love you
|
Why should I still keep thinkin' about you baby--thinkin' about you baby
|
Why should I cry
|
Oh why should I
|
|
|
What good is "I need you" when we can't be together?
|
What good is "I want you", when you're passing me by?
|
I can't keep on saying "I love you" forever
|
What good is "I love you", when you're saying goodbye?
