Present Company

Present Company is the fifth studio album by singer-songwriter Janis Ian, and her solitary album for Capitol Records. After her break-up with original producer Shadow Morton, and the failure of her final two Verve albums The Secret Life of J. Eddy Fink and Who Really Cares to dent the Billboard albums chart, Ian moved to California in 1970 and continued writing songs. In the autumn of 1970, Ian began working without a recording contract with producer and musician Jerry Corbitt (of The Youngbloods) in California before signing with Capitol Records in January. The sixteen songs, including three songwriting collaborations with Peter Cunningham, were released as Present Company early in 1971.

It's getting harder to be into you
Because you're into everybody else
I tried to think of ways to stick with you
But I don't know if I can stick this now

Don't say you're sorry
It's just part of the deal
Don't say you love me
We said we'd be this way from the start

I never thought I'd get caught up again so quickly
You're prickly
If we could just take it easy for a while
Could I still see you?

And if I gave you my heart in a box
Would you let me? Or just pet me?
You got me spinning in circles again
But I just wanted to die three months ago

Don't say you're sorry
It's just part of the deal
Don't say you love me
We said we'd be this way from the start

I never thought I'd get caught up again so quickly
It's messy
All of my love that I put on you is from before you
Distant memory
I can't admit that I was wrong this time 'cause I want you
I still want you
I can't admit that maybe I'm too small
Cause I want you

We'll all get better in the light
Can't let you go out of my sight

I won't beg for you, but I'll put myself through hell
I won't beg for you, but I'll put myself through hell

Be with me
