The Ronettes
Is This What I Get for Loving You?
[Verse 1]
There's been a lot of talk around
That you've been seen with a certain party
And now I'm so afraid I'm losing you
Oh, baby
Don't tell me you don't want my love
I couldn't give it to just anybody
Baby won't you tell me it's not true
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't leave me baby
Don't tell me it's over
After I trusted you
And did my best to make you happy
[Chorus]
Is this what I get for loving you, baby?
Is this what I get for loving you, baby?
[Post-Chorus]
There was a night when
You held me tight and
You said you'd always love me
You said you'd never hurt me
[Verse 2]
What would there be left for me
It's such a cruel world to be alone in
I always needed you to look out for me
Oh, baby
I'm gonna miss your loving arms
They're the only arms I feel at home in
Don't you know how lonely I'm gonna be
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't leave me baby
Don't tell me it's over
After I trusted you
And did my best to make you happy
[Chorus]
Is this what I get for loving you, baby?
Is this what I get for loving you, baby?
[Post-Chorus]
There was a night when
You held me tight and
You said you'd always love me
You said you'd never hurt me
[Pre-Chorus (Refrain)]
Don't leave me baby
[Chorus]
Is this what I get for loving you, baby?
Is this what I get for loving you, baby?
[Post-Chorus]
There was a night when
You held me tight and
You said you'd always love me
You said you'd never hurt me
