|
I could shame you 'til you hide your face |
|
And drag you right down in disgrace |
|
But what good would it do |
|
I know I'd still want you. |
|
I could tell the world you're doin' wrong |
|
That I was stringin' you along |
|
And if it all were true |
|
I know I'd still want you. |
|
The world with me might sympathize |
|
When I got thru with all my lies |
|
But I'd be just as blue |
|
'Cause my heart would still want you-ooo-oo |
|
Cry, oh, Lord. |
|
I could tell my friends I threw you down |
|
And slander your name all over town |
|
But what good would it do |
|
I know I'd still want you. |
|
If I said I'm happy to be free |
|
The only one I'd fool is me |
|
Because it isn't true |
|
I know I'd still want you. |
|
What's the use to say that you're no good |
|
When I'd crawl back if I could |
|
No matter what you do |
|
I know I'd still want you-ooo-oo |
|
Cry, oh, Lord. |
|
I could smIle and say that I don't care |
|
And then go home and pull my hair |
|
But what good would it do |
|
I know I'd still want you. |
|
I could say that someone put me wise |
|
And get revenge by telling lies |
|
But when I got all thru |
|
I know I'd still want you. |
|
If the things I said was to break your heart |
|
I'd be the first to take your part |
|
'Cause if all these lies were true |
|
I know I'd still want you-oooo-oo |
|
Cry, oh, Lord. |
