This Old Heart of Mine (Is Weak for You) Lyrics

Ooh, this old heart of mine
Been broke a thousand times;
Each time you break away
I think you're gone to stay.
Lonely nights that come,
Memories that flow,
Bringing you back again,
Hurting me more and more...

Maybe it's my mistake
To show this love I feel inside
'Cause each day that passes by,
You've got me never knowin'
If I'm comin' or goin' but I,
I love you-ou-ou, yes I do.
This old heart (ooh), darlin'
Is weak for you.
I love you-ou-ou, yes I do.

These old arms of mine
Miss having you around.
Make these tears inside
Start falling down.
Always with half a kiss,
You remind me of what I miss.
Though I try to control myself,
Like a fool I start grinnin'
'Cause my head starts spinnin'
'Cause I,
I love you-ou-ou, yes I do
This old heart (ooh), darlin'
Is weak for you
I love you-ou-ou, yes I do.

I try hard to hide my hurt inside
This old heart of mine
Always keeps me cryin'.
The way you're treatin' me
Leaves me incomplete.
You're here for the day,
Gone for the week.

But if you leave me a hundred times,
A hundred times I'll take you back.
I'm yours whenever you want me;
I'm not too proud to shout it,
Tell the world about it 'cause I,
I love you-ou-ou.
This old heart (this old heart)
Is weak for you.
I love you-ou-ou.
This old heart (this old heart)
Is weak for you.
I love you-ou-ou.
This old heart (this old heart)
Is weak for you.

Cover art for This Old Heart of Mine (Is Weak for You) lyrics by Isley Brothers, The

This was the first lyric that helped me sort out the emotions of my first love. It explained to my mixed up teenage mind the complex situations of growing up and understanding that a girl can love you but still be curious, after all I was.

The 'b' side to the single was There's No Love Left, this also helped me though a very low spot.
