I've Been Loving You Too Long

(Curly Putman - Sonny Throckmorton)



I've been loving you too long, It's time I sang a different song

You've been stringing me along, I've been loving you too long

I've been clinging like a vine but I'm gonna take the time

To find where I belong, I've been loving you too long.



Babe, I'm not saying that I've stopped loving you

That it won't be hard to say goodbye

I may never get your lovin' out of my head

But I'm just saying that I've gotta try.



I've been loving you too long, It's time I sang a different song

You've been stringing me along, I've been loving you too long

I've been clinging like a vine but I'm gonna take the time

To find where I belong, I've been loving you too long.

No one owns another one and that's what you try

You tried to own me body mind and soul

Love to you's a oneway street all coming your way

But always givin's gettin' kind of gold.



I've been loving you too long, It's time I sang a different song

You've been stringing me along, I've been loving you too long

I've been clinging like a vine but I'm gonna take the time

To find where I belong, I've been loving you too long...
