I still recall when we first met
that very night, i can't forget
& i could feel the way you move
i knew right then, you'd fit my groove
i should've known, known by the past
that this here love just wouldn't last
you said you'd never say bye-bye
you told a lie, you told a lie
you made me need you more each day
you took advantage, you did not play
now you want me to give you up
i just can't drink that bitter cup
i just can't get you off my mind
without your love i'd surely die
i need your love
can't let you go
i should be smiling by now, oh my love
with some new, tender friend
smiling by now, with my heart on the mend
& when i try, ohhh! when i try
hey, something in my heart, says no, NO!
you're still here, you're here with me, baby
i wish...yeah, wish i didn't love you so
