Just 'Cause I'm In Love With You

(Writer: Jesse Winchester)



It's true, you've got me going, 'round in circles

You keep me so darned dizzy, I could cry

But every time you hurt me, I grow a little stronger

I'll soon be strong enough to say goodbye.



It will be so good to smile

Gee, it's been a long, long while

After all that I've been through

Just 'cause I'm in love with you.

But there will come a day, you'll see

You won't have control of me

You can't hurt me like you do

Just 'cause I'm in love with you.

I'll ask, whatever saint looks after lovers

I'll ask, would you please look after me

And would you kindly hear my prayer,

And have a little mercy?

Please, if she doesn't love me, set me free.



It will be so good to smile

Gee, it's been a long, long while

After all that I've been through

Just 'cause I'm in love with you

But there will come a day, you'll see

You won't have control of me

You can't hurt me like you do

Just 'cause I'm in love with you...
