Dusty Springfield - Mixed Up Girl Lyrics
(jimmy webb)Ah, ha, ahGonna let you go my angelThough I could make you stayI could use my blind self-pityThrow it in your wayBut the times have turned between usAnd you know I dont believeThat it makes one bit of differenceIf you stay or if you leaveWhy cant I be lonelyLike that lonely rushing river?Pushing down a mountainOn its way to meet the seaWhy cant I need somebodyLike that river needs that ocean?Why did you have to get so mixed up, baby?With a mixed up girlWith a mixed up girl like me, yeahGonna make it short now, angelThough I could make it longI could take through all the changesAnd show you where youre wrongBut our dreams dont flow togetherAnd youll never, never see the lightSo it really, really doesnt matterWho is wrong or who is right?Oh, why cant I be lonelyLike that lonely rushing river?Its pushing down the mountainOn its way to meet the seaOh, why cant I need somebodyLike that river needs that ocean?Why did you have to get so mixed up, baby?With a mixed up girlWith a mixed up girl like me, mmm, ooh, mmm, ooh
