I don’t want to be the one to say “this has got to stop”
But every time I give a girl all the loving I have got
She breaks my heart and then leaves me in tears
It’s such a shame but it’s been going on for years
Why won’t they admit, and just give in a little
You can’t make ends meet by leaving love out the middle
I’m the type of guy that hates to see a lovely face crying
But what can you do, when you find out that that face
You’ve been a-loving ain’t been doing nothing but a-lying
Well it makes no difference with what she says
Or what she does or what it was
I know I’m through with you
Ain’t it funny how love, resembles the seasons of the year
You can be so happy and joyful in the spring time
And by autumn your face will be full of tears
Cause the woman that you loved, she put you down
She says she doesn’t want you hanging around no more
Believe me I’m hurt
But I don’t want to be the one to say “this has got to stop”
But every time I give a girl all the loving I have got
She breaks my heart in two; leaves me looking like a fool
There just ain’t nothing I can do
But it’s time that we all admit, and just give in a little
You can’t make ends meet by leaving love out the middle
Mmmm, got to make those ends meet, girl
