Lyrics

(C)Ev ’ry time you kiss me I’m still not cer tain that you (Dm)love me.

Ev ’ry time you hold me I’m still not cer tain that you (C)care.

Though you keep on say ing you real ly real ly real ly (Dm)love me,

do you speak the same words to some one else when I’m not (C)there?

Sus (Am)pi cion

tor ments my heart.

Sus pi cion

keeps us a part.

Sus pi cion, why tor ture (D)me?

(C)Ev ’ry time you call me and tell me we should meet to (Dm)mor row,

I can’t help but think that you’re meet ing some one else to (C)night.

Why should our ro mance just a keep on caus ing me such (Dm)sor row?

Why am I so doubt ful when ev er you are out of (C)sight?

Sus (Am)pi cion

tor ments my heart.

Sus pi cion

keeps us a part.

Sus pi cion, why tor ture (D)me?

(D)me?

Why tor ture (C)me?
