The Alan Parsons Project

Damned If I Do

Written by Eric Woolfson and Alan Parsons

I ain't got a heart of stone

I'm hurtin' more now than I've ever known

If you mean the things you said

I'm gonna wind up outa my head

Can't sleep alone at night

I just can't seem to get it right

Damned if I do

I'm damned if I don't but I love you


I don't want to tie you down

Don't need a reason to have you around

But each time you walk away

Don't be surprised if I ask you to stay

Can't sleep alone at night

I just can't seem to get it right

Damned if I do

And I'm damned if I don't but I love you

I said I'm damned if I do

And I'm damned if I don't cause I love you


I ain't got a heart of stone

You haven't left me a mind of my own

But it's got such a hold on me

I don't think I could ever be free

How can I survive

I'm fighting to keep myself alive

I'm damned if I do

Damned if I don't but I love you

Can't seem to see the light

I've done everything but I can't get it right

Damned if I do

Damned if I don't but I love you
