Lyrics Marianne Faithfull – Is This What I Get For Loving You?
Text:
There’s been a lot of talk around
That you’ve been seen with a certain party
And now I’m so afraid I’m losing you
Oh baby, don’t tell me you don’t want my love
Baby, won’t you say it isn’t true
Don’t leave me, baby
Don’t tell me it’s over
After I trusted you and did my best
To make you happy
Is this what I get for loving you, baby?
Is this what I get for loving you, baby?
There was a night when you held me tight
And you said you’d always love me
You said you’d always need me
What will there be left for me?
It’s such a cruel world to be alone in
I always needed you to look out for me
Oh baby, I’m gonna miss your loving arms
‘Cause they’re the only arms I feel at home in
Don’t you know how lonely I’m gonna be?
Don’t leave me, baby
Don’t tell me it’s over
After I trusted you and did my best
To make you happy
Is this what I get for loving you, baby?
Is this what I get for loving you, baby?
There was a night when you held me tight
And you said you’d always love me
You said you’d always need me
What will there be left for me?
It’s such a cruel world to be alone in
I always needed you to look out for me
Oh baby, I’m gonna miss your loving arms
‘Cause they’re the only arms I feel at home in
Don’t you know how lonely I’m gonna be?
Don’t leave me, baby
Don’t tell me it’s over
After I trusted you and did my best
To make you happy
Is this what I get for loving you, baby?
Is this what I get for loving you, baby?
There was a night when you held me tight
And you said you’d always love me
You said you’d always need me
