(You’ve Got Me) Dangling on a String Songtext
von Chairmen of the Board

You′ve got me dangling on a string
Please don't let me drop, my life will surely stop
′Cause I'm trapped in a dream of needing you so
My heart's in a noose and I can′t break loose
I′m not half the man that I used to be, and I'll admit it
Your love has become a habit to me, and I can′t quit it
Won't you take this half a man and make this man whole again?
You′ve got me dangling on a string
Please don't let me drop, ′cause you're everything I've got
′Cause I′m trapped in a dream of needing you so
The feeling is strong and I can't let go
Every time I phone, your number′s changed or disconnected
You have made my life a book of games, I feel so rejected
Girl, you've got the best of me, now come and take the rest of me You′ve got me dangling on a string
Please don't let me drop, ′cause you're everything I've got
′Cause I′m trapped in a dream of needing you so
The feeling is strong and I can't let go
Girl, my nights are so lonely
Ooh, I′m needing you only
I only drink enough from your loving cup to keep me thirsty
Girl, my need for you is, oh so strong, until it hurts me
You've got me dangling on a string
Please don′t let me drop, 'cause you′re everything I've got
'Cause I′m trapped in a dream of needing you so
The feeling is strong and I can′t let go
You've got me dangling on a string
