Is This What I Get for Loving You?
(Songwriters: Carole King / Gerry Goffin / Phil Spector)

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?

Don't leave me, baby
Don't tell me it's over
After I trusted you
And did my best to make you happy

Is this what I get for loving you, baby? (Oh, is this what I get)
Is this what I get for loving you, baby?
There was a night when you held me tight
And you said you'd always love me (you said you'd always love me)
You said you'd never hurt me (you said you'd never hurt me)

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

And 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

Don't leave me baby
Don't tell me it's over
After I trusted you and did my best to make you happy

Is this what I get for loving you, baby? (Oh, is this what I get)
Is this what I get for loving you, baby?
There was a night when you held me tight
And you said you'd always love me (you said you'd always love me)
You said you'd never hurt me (you said you'd never hurt me)
