The Weakness In Me Lyrics - Indigo Girls

I'm not the sort of person who falls in and quickly out of love 

But to you, I give my affection, right from the start. 

I have a lover who loves me - how could I break such a heart? 

Yet still you get my attention. 

Why do you come here, when you know I've got troubles enough? 

Why do you call me, when you know I can't answer the phone? 

And make me lie when I don't want to, 

And make someone else some kind of an unknowing fool? 

Make me stay when I should not? 

If you're so strong then resolve the weakness in me. 

Why do you come here, and pretend to be just passing by? 

I need to see you - I need to hold you - tightly. 

Feeling guilty, 

And I'm worried, and I'm waking from a tormented sleep 

'Cause this old love, you know it has me bound, 

But this new love cuts so deep. 

If I choose now, I'm bound to lose out; 

One of you is gonna have to fall... 

I need you, baby. 

Why do you come here, when you know I've got troubles enough? 

Why do you call me, when you know I can't answer the phone? 

And make me lie when I don't want to, 

And make someone else some kind of an unknowing fool? 

Make me stay when I should not? 

If you're so strong then resolve the weakness in me. 

Why do you come here, and pretend to be just passing by? 

I need to see you - I need to hold you - tightly
