"Weak" by April Snow

The first time I ever laid eyes on you
I knew right then and there I had to be with you
I swear I couldn't move or speak when you smiled at me
Oh you make me feel so weak I can barely breathe

I let myself give in, although it was plain to see
I was nothing but another lover, you were so much more to me
I swear I couldn't move or speak when you smiled at me
Boy you made me feel so weak I crumbled easily

I let you into my heart
I let you into my soul
Into my life, my head, and my bed
and then I lost control.

I swear I couldn't move or speak boy when you smiled at me
You know you made me feel so weak I crumbled easily
I get a physical reaction when you're next to me
Oh lord you make me feel so weak I can barely breathe

I go weak in my knees, I can barely breathe
I go weak in my knees, I can barely breathe
I go weak in my knees, in my knees
I can barely breathe

Weak

I’m on my knees begging you to stay, didn’t you used to say,
There was nothing in the world we couldn’t make it through?
Would you just give up on a friend? Doesn’t love transcend?
How can it end if I’m supposed to spend my life with you 
With you.

Before you close the door and leave, 
walk out on all our memories,
Don’t you remember how we got to where we are today?
'Cause nothing ever will erase our past, not even our mistakes
You're my everything, oh even on your darkest days.

My life means nothing without you.
There’s no way I’ll make it through.
We can’t be over, because we are meant to be,
To be together, you and me.

I’m on my knees begging you to stay, didn’t you used to say,
There was nothing in the world we couldn’t make it through?
How could you give up on your friend? Doesn’t love transcend?
How can it end if I’m supposed to spend my life with you 
With you.

I won’t give up on me and you, 
not after all that we’ve been through
I can’t imagine life without you standing next to me
So spread your wings if you must fly, I’ll be right here standing by,
Because I know that in the end your path leads back to me.

Yes, spread your wings if you must fly, 
I’ll be right here standing by,
Because I know that in the end your path leads back to me
Oooh, oooh, it leads back to me, cause this has to be.

Elegy Of Us

Got to be cruel to be kind you said, I never did understand
I bought every single line from a manipulative man
Wrapped around your finger, I was such a fool
You were never kind, you were only kind of cruel

My heart made up excuses for every word you said
I only saw the good through these delusions in my head
Wrapped around your finger, I was such a fool
You were never kind, you were only kind of cruel

I should have dead-bolted the door but I left it open wide
I knew what lay in store and still I let you back inside
You kissed me just to twist me, know I'm weak under you touch
I wanted to believe you missed me 'cause I missed you oh so much
Thought this time could be different, I've clearly gone insane
You've got me fuzzy in the brain, oh I'm all buzzy like champagne
So I blocked out all the pain, and I let you in again

Had to be cruel to be kind you said and sparked up an affair
I'm sorry if I hurt you but it's just because I care
Wrapped around your finger, I was such a fool
You were never kind, you were only kind of cruel

Euphoria set in but it didn't last for long
As quickly as the nice guy came, more quickly he was gone
Wrapped around your finger, and I was still a fool
You were never kind, you were only kind of cruel
... no you were never kind, you were always kind of cruel.
