YOU'VE GOT ME CAUGHT IN A STRANGLEHOLD BY CHERYL V.

YOU’VE GOT ME CAUGHT IN A STRANGLEHOLD

YOU SEE, YOU’VE GOT ME CAUGHT IN A STRANGLEHOLD
SO YOU REALLY THINK, YOU ARE ACTING SO BOLD
AND KNOW I CAN’T POSSIBLY GO ANYWHERE
IN YOUR BED, YOU CLAIM THAT WE CAN SHARE
ALL OF OUR FEELINGS WITH EACH OTHER
IN THE FIRST PLACE, YOU AREN’T MY MOTHER
AND ANOTHER THING, I’VE GOT TO GET STRAIGHT
WITH YOU IS THAT YOU CAN’T DETERMINE MY FATE
THIS IS ONE THING WHICH CAN ONLY DO ON MY OWN
BEING THAT I’M NOT THE TYPE OF MAN, YOU CAN OWN
I’M THE TYPE OVER WHICH YOU CAN’T HAVE ANY CONTROL
ALTHOUGH MY LOVE TENDS TO GET VERY FULL
THIS STRANGLEHOLD WHICH YOU HOLD OVER ME
CAN’T EVEN KEEP ME IN ONE PLACE, YOU SEE
GET THE IDEA OUT OF YOUR HEAD
WHILE WE ARE SHARING THE SAME BED
THAT YOU REALLY ARE FULL OF LUST FOR ME
BECAUSE YOU ARE THE ONE, PAYING THE FEE
FOR HAVING ME AS YOUR MAN
SO GET OUT OF MY WAY AS FAST AS YOU CAN
AND WHILE YOU ARE, DON’T LOOK BACK
REMEMBER THAT I SHOOT REALLY BAD
AND YOU ARE ONLY SHOOTING THE BREEZE
AND THAT’S WHY YOU’RE RESPONSIBLE FOR MY LOVE FEE
SO YOU WON’T BE ABLE TO KEEP MY LIFE ON HOLD
AND THINK THAT ANY LOVE TO YOU HAS BEEN SOLD
FIRST FIGURE OUT FOR YOURSELF IF YOU REALLY
ARE BEING RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT YOU ARE FEELING
ABOUT ME WHETHER THESE ARE REAL FEELINGS
OR JUS ARE IN A WHIRL ON THIS EVER-TURNING WHEEL
DEEP IN HEAD OVER HEELS IN LOVE WITH ME
BECAUSE IF THIS ISN’T REAL LOVE, YOU’RE IN DEEP
IN SOMETHING WHICH YOU CAN’T SHAKE LOOSE
THEN, YOU’RE THE ONE YOU MUST CALL THIS A TRUCE
SO THAT WE CAN BOTH GET BACK ON THE MOVE
AND GET OURSELVES BACK INTO THE GROOVE
THEN, IT’S BEST FOR US IF WE GO ON OUR SEPARATE WAYS
AND NEVER EVEN TAKE ONE LOOK BACK TO THE VERY DAY
WHEN WE BOTH THOUGHT WE HAD SOMETHING GOING
WHEN ALL THAT TIME, LOVE NEVER WAS IN THE MAKING
YOU’VE GOT ME FEELING SO HELPLESS
THAT I SEEM TO BE FEELING LESS AND LESS
OF LOVE FOR YOU WHICH NEVER WAS THERE
TO BEGIN WITH AND NEVER TOOK US ANYWHERE
EXCEPT ON THIS ROAD TO NEVER NEVER LAND
WHERE LOVE NEVER GOT THE CHANCE TO BECOME PLANTED
INTO OUR HEARTS EVEN WHEN WE FIRST MET IN A HOTEL
AND JUS BECAUSE I NEVER EXPECTED ANY BELLS
TO RING IN EITHER OF OUR LIVES BACK THEN
THAT LOVE NEVER OVERCAME ME BACK THEN
SO I BEG YOU TO LET ME GO OF YOUR STRANGLEHOLD
SO THAT THE WISDOM OF LIFE CAN TAKE ITS RIGHTFUL HOLD
