Boys On the Side movie - You Got It lyrics

rate me

Song by Bonnie Raitt<br /><br>

Fate is mighty cruel<br>

Where true love is concerned<br>

It seems you give out more<br>

Than you ever have returned<br>

Lately I have tried<br>

<br>

To make it on my own<br>

Another nite has passed<br>

Looks like I'm bound to be alone<br>

Bound to be alone<br>

<br>

Now solitude is fine<br>

When you really need it<br>

When your soul is dry<br>

Sometimes loneliness can feed it<br>

When you need a lover<br>

You know there's nothin' else will do<br>

When you need love most<br>

You know it turns it's back on you<br>

<br>

Oh, I can make it thru without your company<br>

I only wish I knew why you won't comfort me<br>

I thot that I could count on you<br>

To hear me cryin' out<br>

I guess that's one comfort<br>

I will learn to do without<br>

<br>

Fallin love too easily<br>

But never quite so fast<br>

so you are not the first and, lord<br>

You sure won't be the last<br>

The thing about the situation<br>

That makes me feel so sad<br>

I could've been the best old friend<br>

<br>

That you have ever had<br>

I could've been the best old friend<br>

That you have ever had<br>

<br>
