Lyrics Bonnie Raitt

Bonnie Raitt

What You're Doin' to Me

Above the fray, my heart got tucked away

I finally found some peace

I lost the taste for it, the pain and the waste of it

Love just wasn't meant for me

Just when I thought the coast was finally clear

You come bustin' in the door and pull me outta here

Now there's no denyin', baby, what you're doin' to me

Honey, I ain't lyin', 'cause baby feels so good to me

I pulled in tight, pushed back with all my might

And still you couldn't get enough

My last defense is slippin' out of reach

You got me where you want me, now I'm fallin' into the breach

Now there's no denyin', baby, what you're doin' to me

Ain't no use in tryin', 'cause baby you're so good to me

After all that Sturm and Drang I gave up long ago

One too many times around and nothin' left to show

You got that somethin', baby, that shakes me to the core

Pulled me straight out by the roots and got me holl'in more

Just goes to show, no way you'll ever know

What love's got up her sleeve

You think the game's up, headin' home and guess what?

She shows up with a sweet reprieve

No use in wonderin' if it's real or if it's not

With nothin' left to lose you might as well give it a shot

Now there's no denyin', baby, what you're doin' to me

Ain't no use in tryin', 'cause baby, we were meant to be
