Mentioned by nancyjo on 14-Oct-2003:
WORKING MY WAY BACK TO YOU
As recorded by The Four Seasons (later known as Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons), 1966.
CHORUS: Workin' my way back to you, babe,
With a burnin' love inside.
Yeah, I'm workin' my way back to you, babe,
And the happiness that died.
I let it get away,
Payin' every day.
When you were so in love with me,
I played around like I was free.
Thought I could have my cake and eat it too,
But how I cried over losin' you.
See me down and out,
But I ain't about
To go living my life without you.
For every day I made you cry,
I'm paying, girl, 'til the day that I die.
CHORUS: I keep workin'....
I used to love to make you cry.
It made me feel like a man inside,
But if I'd been a man in reality,
You'd still be here, babe, lovin' me.
Now the nights are long
And lonely and I ain't too strong,
Babe; I just miss you so.
And you're too proud; you won't give in,
But when I think about all I could win,
CHORUS: I keep workin'....
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
CHORUS: I'm workin' my way back to you, babe,
With a burnin' love inside.
I'm workin' my way back to you, babe,
And the happiness that died.
Oh, how I cried.
Workin' my way back to you, babe,
With a burning love inside....
