You never seem, seem to have the time to listen to what I say How can I know just what goes on in your mind if you always walk away So what's the good, what's the good of trying And hanging around you begging for your love When it seems there's someone else in your dreams And I can't be sure of you anymore Are you growing tired of my love? Have you had too much of my love? Are you growing tired of my love? Where is the love you once gave me? And when we meet, things are not the same now, you always hurry away And all the friends that once you used to share with me are ignored now, and you're bored now I guess we are through, but still I go on hoping Because you never put it into words Can't you see you should be honest with me And I've got to find what is in your mind Are you growing tired of my love? Have you had too much of my love? Are you growing tired of my love? Where is the love you once gave me? Are you growing tired of my love? Have you had too much of my love? Are you growing tired of my love? Where is the love you once gave me? Are you growing tired of my love? Have you had too much of my love? Are you growing tired of my love? Where is the love you once gave me?
