You're Refusing Me (Is Confusing Me)
He has been gone.. for so long...
You know this old hymn, your song
But, yet I am still, the one standing here with you..
Still waiting and wanting on you...
I know I could never... fill.. his shoes
Nor would I ever want too
Darling, I could never be untrue..
Never untrue to you
It was he that betrayed you
It was not I, but to you he was cruel
But, I can not help myself...
I don't want anyone else...
I still want you, yes I do...
Darling you know this.. to be true...
Why don't you know this to be true?
You're refusing me... is confusing me
I know you still want him, you do...
Darling; just... as much as I want you
I know this much is still true..
Where did it all go wrong..
We have been together for so long..
What am I doing here with you...?
Sweetly pretending.. I am with you...
Am I, just you're fool?
That young man of yours was just a tool
You're refusing me... is confusing me
Why is it so hard.. for you to see..
Won't you please tell me what it is that I need to do...
To get him out of you're mind has taken all.. of my time
Darling this.. just is not right..
This long and lonely fight..
That I must fight for you..
I love you, Yes I do..
Please wont you love me.. tonight
You're refusing me... it has been so hard on me
Why don't you.. let him go.. this very night..
He will never treat you right no not his type.
You are telling me..; In not so many words
That you will never be over him
But he is gone, long gone
Out with another man's woman tonight
Darling let us not pretend, please do not pretend
Darling this song of yours will it ever end?
No, not, with him
No.. not, with him
Darling I love you dear
Darling please wont you hear
I know this to be true
So darling let us not pretend
You're refusing me...
It is not killing me
That one deed of yours can not kill true love
But you can if you deny me the way you've been
Please do not let us end
Come here to me once again
Darling I love you
Yes I do
I will be happy to continue..
With you... if you want me dear I'll be right here
waiting on you
Why just the other.. day when we we playing house
And the children.. were watching old Mickey Mouse
I saw you smile.. in such a way
Where is that smile today
Oh why aren't you wearing that smile today?
You're refusing me.. is confusing me..
When will it end...I once was more... back then
When will I be more then just.. you're friend....
Honey I love you
You know this to be true..
I will always love you
