Weakness Of The Body

(This song is a rare 1989 demo.)



I know I hurt you so

The night you heard

My true confession, boy

I had to let you know

I spent the night

Of guilty passion, so



I called to say

There'll never be another

To take your place, no

Now I pray

That you'll put an end to

These tears of shame

Rolling down my face



Chorus:

I have the strength of heart

But a weakness of the body

It tore our love apart

Now I'm feeling sad and lonely

I have the strength of heart

But a weakness of the body

How can I make it right

I gotta have you

Here with me tonight

(Weakness of the body)



It didn't mean a thing

I guess I needed

To prove my love was true

I had to feel the sting, mm

Of a night in another's arms

Away from you, whoa



Now I'm lying

Staring at the ceiling

Counting my pain, oh

Now I'm crying

I've turned our days of sunshine

Into these days

And nights of rain



I have the strength of heart

But a weakness of the body

It tore our love apart

Now I'm feeling sad and lonely

I have the strength of heart

But a weakness of the body

How can I make it right

I gotta have you

Here with me tonight

(Weakness of the body)



Gotta have your love

No, no, no

(Weakness of the body)



(spoken:)

Every morning I wake up

And remember you're gone

I look in the mirror

And ask myself

Why did I do so wrong?

Now I feel the love

That burns so hot inside me

Just trust me one more time

And I promise..

To make you happy



I called to say

There'll never be another

To take your place, oh

Now I pray

That you'll put an end to

These tears of shame

Rolling down my face



I have the strength of heart

But a weakness of the body

It tore our love apart

Now I'm feeling sad and lonely

I have the strength of heart

But a weakness of the body

How can I make it right

I gotta have you

Here with me tonight

(Weakness of the body)



I have the strength of heart

But a weakness of the body

It tore our love apart

Now I'm feeling sad and lonely

I have the strength of heart

But a weakness of the body

How can I make it right

I gotta have you, yeah



I have the strength of heart

(But a weakness of the body)

It tore our love apart

Now I'm feeling sad and lonely

I have the strength of heart

But a weakness of the body, oh

How can I make it right

I gotta have you

Got to, got to

Oh, oh

(Weakness of the body)
