My Hands Are Tied Lyrics - Porter Wagoner

To be with you is what I want more than anything 

But I must share my life with the one who wears my ring 

And there are tiny places I look into each night 

I love you but my hands are tied 

I know how much they need you and dear I understand 

I know you'll never leave 'em cause you're not that kind of man 

But I can't control my feelings though heaven knows I tried 

And I love you but my hands are tied 

My hands are tied and I can't break the ties that bind 

I love you more than life but you never will be mine 

I know how much you want me I can see it in your eyes 

And I love you but my hands are tied 

[ steel ] 

My hands are tied... 

Yes I love you but my hands are tied
