I'm Still In Love With You
T-Bone Walker With Marl Young And His Orchestra Lyrics

I knew the time had to come
I had a feeling that someday I would lose control and be at your mercy

When I'd be held under your thumb
That you would have me under your complete domination

I'm like a pawn in your hand
I feel powerless and at your mercy, like a piece in a game of chess

Moved and compelled, at your command
I am driven and forced to do your bidding and follow your orders

Whether it's for bad or for good
No matter if the consequences are negative or positive

I would never change it if I could
I wouldn't want to alter the situation, despite the difficulties it brings

Maybe I'm right, maybe I'm wrong
I'm unsure if my feelings are justified or not

Maybe I'm weak, maybe I'm strong
I am not sure whether I am susceptible or resilient to your influence

But nevertheless I'm in love with you
Despite my doubts and insecurities, I am still deeply attached to you

Maybe I'll win, maybe I'll lose
I'm uncertain whether our relationship will end up being beneficial or detrimental

And maybe I'm in for crying the blues
I might be faced with pain and sorrow due to our relationship

But nevertheless I'm in love with you
But still, I cannot help feeling intensely affectionate towards you

Somehow, I know at a glance, the terrible chances I'm taking
I can sense the great risks I am subjecting myself to by being with you

Fine at the start, then left with a heart that is breaking
Our relationship may have seemed promising initially, but may eventually lead to heartbreak

Maybe I'll live a life of regret,
I might have a future plagued with remorse due to my choices

And maybe I'll give much more than I get
I may end up sacrificing more than I receive in return

But nevertheless, I'm in love with you
Nevertheless, my love for you persists

In spite of all I could do
Despite all my efforts and reservations

I went ahead falling for you
I still chose to give in to my feelings and pursue a relationship with you

So if I laugh or I cry
Whether my emotions end up being joyful or sorrowful

I made my bed, that's where I'll lie
I have made my choices, and I will accept the consequences

For what happens there's no excuse
I cannot justify or make excuses for the outcome of my decisions

I put my own head in the noose
I am responsible for the self-inflicted harm that may come from loving you
