What You're Doin' To Me

BONNIE RAITT · Dig In Deep 2016 · Track 05 of 12

Written by Bonnie Raitt

Above the fray, my heart got tucked away And 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
