Lyrics
Let's not fight it anymore
And pack your bag and close the door
I'll never leave you, oh darling
Though you lied right from the start
I can't convince my stupid heart
Not to believe you, oh
You've got two good men strung up
And there is not the slightest doubt
That other men have loved you before
But you work your things so well
I dream of heaven, live in hell
'Til I can't take it anymore
Take it anymore
If I act on in my surprise
I'll listen up or step aside
And girl, I love you
Can't you hear me?
So I just step across your traps
Now I'm a fool and I can't stop
Or rise above you
Let him speak for himself
Speak for me and no one else
'Cause I'm a beggar knocking on your door
Oh, you work your things so well
I dream of heaven, live in hell
'Til I can't take it anymore
Take it anymore
Now if I go on and turn around
And lift myself from off the ground
And start all over and over and over and over
You know that I must turn you loose
No matter which one you may choose
You'll be in clover, you know you will
Darling, you're making up your mind
But I'll be praying all the time
Pray that you never, never-never let me go
Oh, you work your things so well
I dream of heaven, live in hell
'Til I can't take it anymore
Take it anymore
