I don't like you
But I love you
Seems that I'm always thinking of you
Oh, oh, oh
You treat me badly
I love you madly
You've really got a hold on me
You really got a hold on me, baby
I don't want you
But I need you
Don't want to kiss you
But I need to
Oh, oh, oh
You do me wrong now
My love is strong now
You really got a hold on me
You really got a hold on me, baby
I love you and all I want you to do
Is just hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me
Tighter, tighter
I want to leave you
Don't want to stay here
Don't want to spend
Another day here
Oh, oh, oh, I want to split now
I just can't quit now
You really got a hold on me
You really got a hold on me, baby
I love you and all I want you to do
Is just hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me
You really got a hold on me
You really got a hold on me
