It's true
You've got me
Wrapped around your finger
And it seems to me
Seems to me like that's where I belong
You know
How to hold me
And you know how to thrill me
Oh it's just enough to keep me hanging on
Darlin' it's just enough to keep me hanging on
My heart
Is like a yo-yo string
Oh and I'm tied
I'm tied to you right or wrong
My love keeps on growing
And your love keeps right on showing
Oh and it's just enough to keep me hanging on
A love as true as mine
Will make you do most anything
Like hiding tears and heartaches
And dreaming those old silly dreams
Ooh you got me
Where you want me
You just keep me stringing along
Oh and it's just enough to keep me keep me hanging on baby
Oh darlin' just enough to keep me keep me hanging on hanging on hanging on
