(Writer: Jesse Winchester) It's true, you've got me going, 'round in circles You keep me so darned dizzy, I could cry But every time you hurt me, I grow a little stronger I'll soon be strong enough to say goodbye. It will be so good to smile Gee, it's been a long, long while After all that I've been through Just 'cause I'm in love with you. But there will come a day, you'll see You won't have control of me You can't hurt me like you do Just 'cause I'm in love with you. --- Instrumental --- I'll ask, whatever saint looks after lovers I'll ask, would you please look after me And would you kindly hear my prayer, And have a little mercy? Please, if she doesn't love me, set me free. It will be so good to smile Gee, it's been a long, long while After all that I've been through Just 'cause I'm in love with you But there will come a day, you'll see You won't have control of me You can't hurt me like you do Just 'cause I'm in love with you...

Shaking in the evening sun Counting all the times I run Trying to be honest Selfish from a point of view How'd it get away from me? Held up in the old Q.C Watching out the window Crying in my hotel room Oh I'll do anything that you want Except what you're wanting from me I'm lying to you cause I'm lost Lying to you cause I'm lost Lying to you cause I'm lost My mother seems to know it all Sensed it from a distant call How's she so objective? Tell me how you really feel And I was once a maker of my time A celebrated man of mind Always feels a dream until the real sets in Oh I'll be anything Except what you want me to be I'm lying to you cause I'm lost Lying to you cause I'm lost Lying to you cause I'm lost So tell me darling what's it cost When I'm lying to you cause I'm lost? Lying to you cause I'm lost I'm lost, I'm lost I'll be anything I'll be anything Except what you want me to be

Most nights I can keep it buried in the back of my head On most nights I can have a couple drinks, I can take of the edge And then I don't have to think about, try not to think about you That's what I do on most nights, but tonight I'm gonna miss you, I let it hit me I'm gonna sit here and wish you were with me I'm gonna let that goodbye hurt me I wanna feel it, no mercy I reminisce you, I'm gonna go there I know I shouldn't, but right now I don't care 'Stead of spendin' my night losin' the fight, tryin' to forget you Baby I, I'm gonna miss you Most nights I try to stay away from any memory From this nights when you were still sleepin', dreamin' next to me But I'm 'bout to put on continue and slow dance in this burnin' room I'm gonna miss you, I let it hit me I'm gonna sit here and wish you were with me I'm gonna let that goodbye hurt me I wanna feel it, no mercy I reminisce you, I'm gonna go there I know I shouldn't, but right now I don't care 'Stead of spendin' my night losin' the fight, tryin' to forget you Baby I, I'm gonna miss you I'm gonna thing about Charleston, weekend Airbnb And that Carolina heat had nothin' on you and me I'm gonna think about that first kiss in the rain, it was June Remember how we said forever?
