Is This What I Get For Loving You Lyrics

Ronettes Is This What I Get For Loving You

There's been a lot of talk around
That you've been seen with a certain party
& 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 tell me it's not true?

Bridge:
Don't leave me, baby
Don't tell me it's over
After I trusted you
& did my best to make you happy

Is this what I get for lovin' you, baby?
Is this what I get for lovin' you, baby?
There was a night when you held me tight
& you said you'd always love me
You said you'd never hurt me

What would 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
They're the only arms I feel at home in
Don't you know how lonely I'm gonna be

(bridge)
(chorus)

Don't leave me baby

(chorus, to fade)
