What’s The Use Of Breaking Up Lyrics By Jerry Butler

    what’s the use in breakin’ up
    when you just turn around and make up

    oh you say you’re tired and you’re uninspired
    and you wanna leave me oh baby
    the last time you felt that way
    girl you left me for a whole day
    then you called me on the telephone hey baby
    in your sweet and your softest tone hey baby
    askin’ me what should we do
    when you know all the time that i’m crazy about you

    what’s the use in breakin’ up
    when you just turn around and make up

    what’s the use in breakin’ up
    when you just turn around and make up

    we had the same conversation
    well it couldn’t have been more than a week ago
    i said darlin’ you’re breakin’ my heart
    and i don’t see how i can take much more
    i got up and walked out of the door hey baby
    walked on down to the corner store hey baby
    and by the time what i said took in
    i turned right around and came back again

    what’s the use in breakin’ up
    when you just turn around and make up

    what’s the use in breakin’ up
    when you just turn around and make up

    girl i guess we do it ’cause it’s such a groove hey baby
    to find somethin’ that you need to use hey baby
    oh baby i love you i swear
    and ain’t neither one of us goin’ nowhere

    what’s the use in breakin’ up
    when you just turn around and make up

    what’s the use in breakin’ up
    when you just turn around and make up

    you know that you and i both started
    and if we break up we will be broken hearted
    let on i’ve always loved you
    and i think the whole world of you
