Lyrics:
(You’ve really got a hold on me)
You’ve really got a hold on me
You’ve 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’ve really got a hold on me
(You’ve really got a hold on me)
You’ve really got a hold on me
You’ve really got a hold on me, baby
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 can’t quit now
You’ve really got a hold on me
(You’ve really got a hold on me)
You’ve really got a hold on me
You’ve really got a hold on me, baby
I love you and all I want you to do
Is just hold me, please (Hold me)
Squeeze, hold me
(Hold me, hold me)
You’ve really got a hold on me
(You really got a hold on me)
I said you’ve really got a hold on me
(I said you’ve really got a hold on me)
Ya know, you’ve really got hold on me
(Oh, really got a hold on me)
You know, you’ve really got hold on me
(Oh, really got a hold on me)
I said you’ve really got a hold on me
(I said you’ve really hold on me)
