    I'm not the sort of person who falls In and quickly out of love But to you I gave my affection Right from the start I have a lover who loves me: How could I break such a heart? Yet still you gained my attention Why do you come here When you know I've got troubles enough? Why do you call me When you know I can't answer the phone? Make me lie, when I don't want to And make someone else some kind of an unknowin' fool You make me stare, when I should not Are you so strong or is all the weakness in me? Why do you come here And pretend to be just passing by? But I need to see you, And I mean to hold you Tightly Feeling guilty, worried, Waking from tormented sleep This old love has me bound But this new love cuts deep If I choose now, I'll lose out One of you has to fall But I need you, and you Why do you come here When you know I've got troubles enough? Why do you call me When you know I can't answer the phone? Make me lie, when I don't want to And make someone else some kind of an unknowin' fool You make me stare, when I should not Are you so strong or is all the weakness in me? Why do you come here And pretend to be just passing by? But I need to see you, And I mean to hold you Tightly

    If there’s a better song about someone in love and falling for someone else, please let me know (I’d honestly want to hear that, because it would have to be a great one). Poignant, honest, heartfelt vocals…good friend turned me on about a year before Chapman and “Fast Car” showed she was an even bigger fan of her than I was.

    Such a beautiful song, her early albums were the soundtrack of my teens and early 20s. Joan is one of the greatest songwriters and performers to come out of the UK yet she remains so much less well known than she should be. My one regret is never having seen her live.

      Same here. I have listened to Joan from the 1970's and was lucky to see her a few years ago. She was tremendous! Her voice is still as strong as ever in her 70's! What amazed me was how many instruments she can play. It was an awesome concert and she came back for three standing ovations such is Joan's grace and humility❤
