I Can't Quit Her lyrics

I can't quit her,

she's got a hold on me,

she got her hand on my soul,

I can't quit her,

'cause I see her face everywhere I go,

in the city streets, in the country fields,

in the back of my mind.

I know it can't be real

for a woman to possess

all the tenderness she had.

But the hands of time

keep tickin' on my back,

'cause it's been so long

since I had her back beside me.

Yeah, I know,

I can't quit her,

'cause on my darkest night

she comes on like a light.

I can't quite her,

try as I may, with all my might.

She had a woman's touch

and a young girls eyes

and in seconds flat I was proselytized,

turned around and made to feel sweet love.

But the hands of time

keep tickin' on my back

'cause it's been so long

since I had her back beside me.

True love is somethin'

every young boy knows about

and he fights his whole soul all the best to find some.

I was a young boy

'til I held her in my arms

now I find that I'm strung out behind some.

I can't quit her,

she got her hand on me,

she got a hold on my soul

'cause I your face everywhere I go.

I can't quit her, woo ooo yeah

I know

you know I see your face

everywhere I go!

I need her...I need the little girl.
