I Happen to Love You

All my pride has been confiscated

I overestimated my ability to hold out

I can't eat, I can't sleep, I can't think

Of anything but you, babe

And it's not that I don't know your kind

Your aim is to mess up my mind

And now I know you'll succeed, yes, indeed

I go down, hang around till I crawl

Feeling small

And there's not a thing at all that I can do, babe

But I happen to love you, baby

Ooh, I love you, baby

I just can't stop your image from flashing

Smashing my willpower, doing me in, girl

Mama came, Mama saw, Mama conquered

It's really nothing new, babe

Now I know just where I'm at

I don't get another turn at bat

Now that I've begged, I'll get dragged to the pit

Thrown in it

And there just ain't no help 'cause I can't help myself

And I don't expect any from you, babe

But I happen to love you, baby

Mm, I love you, baby

Now I know just where I'm bound

It gets hot that far underground

Now that I'm caught, I'll get taught how to squirm, how to squeal

Be a worm on your heel

Yeah, I know the kind of deal I'll only get from you, babe

But I happen to love you, baby

I just happen to love you, baby
