A Losing Game Lyrics by James Carr

The Complete Goldwax Singles

0

[Verse 1]
I love you darlin' but you don't love me
Might as well face it and set you free
I've been playing a losing game
In spite of this I'm not ashamed
Oh no, woo, um
[Verse 2]
I gave you my love and I have no regrets
I'm true to you baby with all due respect
I stood by you when no one else would
I gave you everything that I possibly could
Yes I did, woo
[Verse 3]
I'm sitting here my hopes so high
Never been a day pass when I didn't cry
People are talking all over town
Keep telling me that I should put you down
I can't, baby
I won't, oh no
Sock it to me baby
[Verse 4]
From your lips sweet honey flows
That is where all my love goes
I shouldn't have pinned my hopes too high
Haven't been a day where I didn't cry
[Outro]
Don't make me cry no more, please
Can't cry no more
I love you, I need you
You don't know
Got to have you
I got to have you, baby
Don't leave me
Please don't leave me
