I was searching for a friend.
You saw my need when you came along,
with your charms you took me in.
Overnight you captured my heart,
turned a spark into a flame.
But you keep it hanging on your string.
I can't free my heart from you, baby.
The way of loving is my weakness.
You made me yours, body and soul.
My mind tells me to leave you.
But my heart won't let me go.
Turned my pleasure into pain.
I can't free my heart from you, baby,
cause you keep it hangin'
I can't free my heart from you,
cause you keep it hangin'
Every time I try to break or lose,
That's when you tighten up
My heart is weakening from the strain.
Oh, I know if you un tied me,
I'd rebound to you just the same.
I can't breathe my heart from you,
Because you keep it hanging
No, no, I can't breathe my
Because you keep it hanging
How'd you keep it hanging
