THAT'S WHAT I GET FOR LOVING YOU Writer Bobby Lee Chorus: Now I've got melodies that never leave They linger on my mind Dreams that always do come true Especially late at night Happiness that grows and grows And fills me through and through That's what I get for loving you. That's what I get for giving in A lifetime of love that never seems to end I almost feels guilty for I've got it so good You can make me feel like I never thought I could. Chorus: Now I've got melodies that never leave They linger on my mind Dreams that always do come true Especially late at night Happiness that grows and grows And fills me through and through That's what I get for loving you. That's what I get for holding you tight Beautiful feelings way down deep inside Friends-but my heart wouldn't listen I just took one look at you and I saw what I've been missing. Chorus: Now I've got melodies that never leave They linger on my mind Dreams that always do come true Especially late at night Happiness that grows and grows And fills me through and through That's what I get for loving you. That's what I get for holding you tight Beautiful feelings way down deep inside Friends-but my heart wouldn't listen I just took one look at you and I saw what I've been missing. Chorus: Now I've got melodies that never leave They linger on my mind Dreams that always do come true Especially late at night Happiness that grows and grows And fills me through and through That's what I get for loving you. Chorus: Now I've got melodies that never leave They linger on my mind Dreams that always do come true Especially late at night Happiness that grows and grows And fills me through and through That's what I get for loving you...
