Captive
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Wait (wait)
I'm not the one that you should blame (blame)
I never meant to cause you pain (pain)
I've gotta go, it's getting late
So late
Yeah
She said: You look at me, don't try to run, don't try to leave
She said: You won't believe what I have done, what I have seen
(Yeah)
She said: You belong to me, don't try to run, don't try to leave
She said: You don't wanna see what I will do if I can't have you
What can I do if I can't have you, my captive love?
My captive love
Shame (shame)
I've tried my luck, planned my escape ('scape)
Your captive love, I can't be claimed (claimed)
I've gotta go, it's getting late
So late
What can I do if I can't have you?
What can I do if I can't have you, my captive love?
My captive love
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You stole my heart
Ripped it apart
And claimed your own
Right from the start
You played the part
Reap what you sow
(Yeah)
You stole my heart
Ripped it apart
And claimed your own
Right from the start
You played the part
Reap what you sow
What can I do if I can't have you?
What can I do if I can't have you, my captive love?
(You stole my heart
Ripped it apart
And claimed your own
Right from the start
You played the part
Reap what you sow)
My captive love
(You stole my heart
Ripped it apart
And claimed your own
Right from the start
You played the part
Reap what you sow)
