The Weakest Man
Lyricist:John Michael Cooley
It's a shame for you to do me the way you did, babe Making me put you down before I was through You tempted me and tried me and I kept you right beside me You ruined me for everyone but you
It's easy to love a thing so warm and soothing That gets you through the night so tenderly But after all these nights with you all I remember Is forgetting just how cold your heart can be
Leaving you won't be any harder Than walking out the door and leaving town But I'll be leaving, knowing, surviving, you don't make me stronger Than the weakest man who's ever turned you down
The body in that pretty dress you wore dear Fit my shaking hand just like a glove Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com But tremblings for the fearful, old and crying Getting old and sad, and scared ain't worth your love
So will you let me go just like I came, babe? Willful, clear of mind and free to see Clear enough to see the others like you And mindful my will breaks so easily
Leaving you won't be any harder Than walking out the door and leaving town But I'll be leaving, knowing, surviving, you don't make me stronger Than the weakest man who's ever turned you down
And leaving you won't be any harder Than walking out the door and leaving town But I'll be leaving, knowing, surviving, you don't make me stronger Than the weakest man who's ever turned you down
