Weakness

Sometimes I'm Virginia Woolf sometimes I'm James Dean

Sometimes I'm my only friend and my own worst enemy

But heaven knows what the next one's gonna do

But I never meant to cause the harm that I have done to you

Sometimes I drink Beaujolais sometimes I drink gin

Sometimes whiskey does me right sometimes it does me in

But you've seen all my darkest shades everything I've been

Still I can't hurt myself much more than anyone else can

I'm worried for no reason

I'm worried and I'm blue

There's no better cure for it

Than being next to you

I can't hide what I am guess it's plain to see

Sometimes my weakness is stronger than me

Sometimes my weakness is stronger than me

Sometimes I live in a penthouse sometimes I live in a shack

Sometimes I fall off the wagon like a train runnin' off the track

I reckon that I'll jump back on it get the Smokey off my back

'Fore I wind up back in prison and give myself another heart attack

I'm worried for no reason

I'm worried and I'm blue

There's no better cure for it

Than being next to you

I can't hide what I am guess it's plain to see

Sometimes my weakness is stronger than me

Sometimes my weakness is stronger than me
