I'm Through Trying To Prove My Love To You - Bobby Womack

Yeah I know you laugh, you’ve had your last laugh, tough

You laughed a whole lot of times as i walked out the door and said:

«Don't worry he be back, see he’s in love and he’s hung up.»

You see, GOD, if HE see that you don’t want

Something that’s good for you HE takes it away and gives it

To somebody else that HE feels that can use it

That’s why today I can say that --

(End Monolouge)

Oh I’m through

(Chorus/backing vocals) I’m through 12x trying to prove my love to you (Bobby

sings over the backing vocals)

I’m through, oh girl i’m through

Sometimes i gave up the right when i know he was wrong

But i believe i can stand up today on my own

Well, But I found someone and I think she understands what it really means

What it really means to have a real man

Her daily deeds and the things she do and say

She said, i’m not trying to take that other woman’s place --

But if i can’t help you is swear i won’t stand in your way

Tell that woman that your through (backing vocals: I try to prove my love)

trying to prove your love to her

She said, tell that woman that you’re through boy.

(backing vocals:

I tryin' prove my love to you)

(Chorus/backing vocals) I’m through 12x (Bobby sings over the backing vocals)

I’m through staying up all night waiting on you to return

I don’t think it’s another lesson

That I have to wait and try to learn

You’ll find out far around the road

See when you take my heart i can’t let you take my soul

And always happen in so many love affairs

Oh you’re so well loved today and tomorrow

Tomorrow you just don’t care

When you tired and give some wrong loving the other

And oh the other one go running in the streets

Running in the streets trying to find it and another

Ohhhh --- and i’m through

(Chorus/backing vocals) I’m through 9x (Bobby sings over the backing vocals)

try to prove my love to you

Well I’m THROUGH!!!

Baby, yeah, yeah yeah

I don’t feel bad about it no, no

Cause i gave everything i had
