Blood Sweat & Tears

Blood Sweat & Tears - I Can't Quit Her lyrics

(Al Kooper, I. Levine)

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 in 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 pros'lytized

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'

ev'ry young boy knows about

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

I was a young boy

'till I held her in my arms

now I find that I'm strung out behind some

Hey!

I can't quit her

She got her hand on me

she got a hold on my soul

'cause I see her face everywhere I go

I can't quit her, woo ooo yeah

I know

You know I see her face

Everywhere I go!

I need her...I need the little girl

(Backwards Guitar Solo)
