"Till I Can't Take It Anymore"
(originally by Ben E. King)
Let's not fight it anymore
Unpack your bags and close the door
I'll never leave you, no, no
Though you lied right from the start
I can't convince my foolish heart
Not to believe you, uh-uh
You've got two good women strung out
And there's not the slightest doubt
That others have loved you before
Oh, but you work your thing so well
I dream of heaven but live in hell
Till I can't take it anymore
If I had one ounce of pride
I'd stand up or step aside
But, boy, I still love you, can't you tell it
So, I'll accept the crumbs that you drop
'Cause I'm a fool and I can't stop
Or rise above you, no, no
So, let her speak up for herself
I speak for me and no one else
'Cause I'm a beggar knockin' on your door
Oh, but you work your thing so well
I dream of heaven but live in hell
Till I can't take it anymore
I'm too far gone to turn around
To let myself up off the ground
And start all over, over and over and over
She or I must win or lose
No matter which one you may choose
You're gonna be in clover, you know you will
Now you're making up your mind
And I'll be praying all the time
That you'll never ever let me go
Oh, but you work your thing so well
I dream of heaven but live in hell
Till I can't take it anymore
Oh, but you work your thing so well
I dream of heaven but live in hell
Till I can't take it anymore

Donna Fargo - "I Can't Stop Loving You" I can't stop loving you
I've made up my mind
To live in memories
Of old lonesome times
I can't stop wanting you
It's useless to say
So I'll just live my life
In dreams of yesterday
Those happy...
Crystal Gayle - "You Never Gave Up On Me" For all the times you stood by me,
Through right and wrong,
For being there to catch me when I'd fall,
I love you for your faith in me,
For all the joys you've given me,
But there's one thing makes...
