you've got a hold of my heart

i've done my best to forget you

dumped your perfume down my drain

my telephone is always in use

new day and bight

you've got a weird conception of love

like a rocket

i am ready to fly

back lit so you can't see their faces

your replacement is everywhere

brown bodies just a little too wide prance around

o.k. let's say my judgement was poor

give me one more chance

and like a rocket

i will fly to your side

you've got a hold of my heart

you've got a hold of my heart

you've got a hold of my heart

in fact

i've done my very best to forget you

and in fact

i failed

and like a rocket

i will fly to your side

you've got a hold of my heart

you've got a hold of my heart

you've got a hold of my heart

the grass is greener on the other side

that's what some old guy said

but i know that old guy must have lied

or he was out of his head

you've got a hold of my heart

you've got a hold of my heart

you've got a hold of my heart
