Don't Make Hurting Me A Habit - The Marvelettes

Yeah, you back here needing me

Back to hurting me

Oh, what should I do (Ooh)

Can I walk away regardless of what you’ll say

Knowing how much I love you, oh

But all right, okay

I forgive you this time

Only don’t make hurting me a habit

Don’t make hurting me a habit

My poor heart couldn’t stand it

So please don’t take advantage of my heart

Yesterday you went away

With another girl (Ooh yesterday)

Oh, you made me cry (You hurt me so)

Now I know that I should tell you goodbye

But my heart, it begs me to stay

Oh all right (All right)

Yeah, okay (Okay)

Ooh, I’ll forgive you this time

Only don’t make hurting me a habit

Don’t make hurting me a habit

Oh no

You have to promise me (Ooh promise me)

That you will comfort me (Ooh promise me)

And watch over my heart (Watch over my heart)

And when my hurting ends

You can begin again to try and make a new start

Oh all right (All right)

Oh, okay (Okay)

Oh yes, I forgive you this time

Only don’t make hurting me a habit

Don’t make hurting me a habit

My poor heart couldn’t stand it

So please don’t take advantage of my heart

Don’t hurt me (Don't hurt me)

Don’t make hurting me a habit

Darling, don’t make hurting me a habit

I love you so don’t hurt me (Don't make hurting me a habit)
