You've Been in Love Too Long Lyrics - Bonnie Raitt

1 Girls, you've been in love too long

2 I said girls, you've been in love too long

3 When just his smile takes all your pain away

4 And you find yourself believin' whatever he may say

5 Now when he gets you cryin'

6 But your heart tells you Girl keep right on tryin'

7 You know Girls, you've been in love too long

8 (You're a fool for your baby)

9 Girls, you've been in love too long

10 (You're a fool for your baby)

11 When you accepted wrongs, just to share his kiss

12 Even your lonely nights, you know they're filled with happiness

13 You know Girl you're in trouble

14 You know your...heart is seein' double

15 Cuz when you're head tells you to run

16 But your heart tells you "Girl he's the only one..."

17 You know you have…been in love too long

18 Cuz when a week of loneliness can be erased with just one sweet caress

19 Girl...you've been in love too long

20 When his wrong looks right…though he always treats you bad

21 You find little excuses for all the sadness and abuses
