Lingering Lyrics - Dinah Washington

Although I know I'm doing wrong 

My love for you is still going strong 

I feel that heart break you will only bring 

So why do I let it keep on lingering? 

To watch my love make his retreat 

Deep within my heart I weep 

My heart should be learning how to sing 

Instead of merely waiting and lingering 

It's by myself I'm walking 

It's by myself I'm talking 

My heart know it's too incomplete 

It's only in my dreams I find 

The kind of man I have in mind 

So each day I face a new defeat 

So by myself I'm dancing 

Still in my mind I'm chancing 

That this illusion will not end in tears

Maybe morning leaves him waiting 

And perhaps relating that without me 

There are only empty years
