is this what i get for loving you ?

Marianne Faithfull

There's been a lot of talk around
That you've been seen with a certain party
And now I'm so afraid I'm losing you.

Oh baby, don't tell me you don't want my love,
I couldn't give it to just anybody.
Baby, won't you say it isn't true.

Don't leave me, baby,
Don't tell me it's over,
After I trusted you and did my best
To make you happy!

Is this what I get for loving you, baby ?
Is this what I get for loving you, baby ?
There was a night when you held me tight
And you said you'd always love me ...
You said you'd always need me ...

What will there be left for me ?
It's such a cruel world to be alone in.
I always needed you to look out for me.

Oh baby, I'm gonna miss your loving arms
'Cause they're the only arms I feel at home in.
Don't you know how lonely I'm gonna be ?

Don't leave me, baby,
Don't tell me it's over,
After I trusted you and did my best
To make you happy!

Is this what I get for loving you, baby ?
Is this what I get for loving you, baby ?

I always needed you to look out for me.

Oh baby, I'm gonna miss your loving arms
'Cause they're the only arms I feel at home in.
Don't you know how lonely I'm gonna be ?

Don't leave me, baby,
Don't tell me it's over,
After I trusted you and did my best
To make you happy!

And you said you'd always love me ...
You said you'd always need me ...
