My Strongest Weakness - Joe Cocker

The keeper of the gates of wisdom

Please let me in

'Cause I just can’t go through

Another heartache again

Pretty lies and alibis

How could I be so blind?

Now I’m all alone and scared to stay

Slowly going out of my mind

He was my strongest weakness

I surrendered heart and soul

It’s gonna be a long, long time

'Til I regain control

I’m still a prisoner

Held captive by his memory

He was my strongest weakness

And I’m afraid he’ll always be

I gave my faithful heart to someone

I couldn’t understand

How he held my little world

In the palm of his hand

Now he’s gone and life goes on

So if this pain will ever end

Will I be afraid to risk it all

Ever fall in love again?
