Is This What I Get For Loving You? - Marianne Faithfull

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

I couldn’t give it to just anybody

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 …
