Obsession Blues

BY MICHAEL MCDONALD AND BERNIE CHIARAVALLE
STARIN¡¯ BACK AT A ROOM FULL OF STRANGE FACES
I SENSE ANOTHER WELCOME WORN THIN
A BARTENDER SAYIN¡¯ ";SON TAKE IT OUTSIDE";
";TAKE IT OUT THE DOOR YOU BROUGHT IT IN";
HE SAID, HE DON¡¯T WANNA HEAR ABOUT MY PROBLEM
OR WHY I THINK I GOT IT SO TOUGH
HE SAID GUYS LIKE ME COME A DIME A DOZEN
THAT MY ONLY PROBLEM IS KNOWIN¡¯ WHEN I¡¯VE HAD ENOUGH
(BUT) HOW CAN I HAVE TOO MUCH?
HOW CAN I HAVE TO MUCH OF SOMETHIN¡¯ I CAN¡¯T GET ENOUGH OF?
YOU SAID IT SO WELL IN YOUR LETTER BABY
YOU GAVE ME EVERY REASON WHY
GIRL YOU SURE USE A LOT OF PAPER, JUST TO SAY GOOD-BYE
WELL HERE¡¯S TO THE GOOD TIMES
HERE¡¯S TO THE WAY WE WERE
HERE¡¯S TO HOW YOU TRIED TO BE MY LOVER
¡®TILL DISASTER STRUCK
NOW YOU WANNA BE A FRIEND AND TELL ME
I¡¯M A MAN WHO SIMPLY NEEDS TOO MUCH
BUT HOW CAN I HAVE TOO MUCH?
HOW CAN I HAVE TO MUCH OF SOMETHIN¡¯ I CAN¡¯T GET ENOUGH OF?
