I want to hold you in my arms 'til you say "turn me loose". I want to do little things to you 'til you say "it ain't no use". I want to wake you every morning with a good morning kiss.
People, I've been misled. And I've been afraid. I've been hit in the head. And left for dead. I've abused. And I've been accused. I been refused a piece of bread.
I gotcha, uh huh, huh. You thought I didn't see ya now, didn't ya, uh huh, huh. You tried to sneak by me now, didn't ya, uh huh, huh. Now gimme what you promised me, give it here.
You'd better hold on, hold on to what you've got. You'd better hold on, hold on to what you've got. 'Cause if you think nobody wants it. Just throw it away and you will see.
