You've got me dangling on a string (Got me dangling, ooh)
Please don't let me drop (Don't let)
'Cause my life will surely stop
'Cause I'm wrapped 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 admit it
Being in love with you, 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 (Got me dangling, ooh)
Please don't let me drop (Don't let)
'Cause my life would surely stop
'Cause I'm wrapped in a dream of needing you so
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 put your trust in me
You've got me dangling on a string (Got me dangling, ooh)
Please don't let me drop (Don't let)
'Cause my life would surely stop
'Cause I'm wrapped in a dream of needing you so
My heart's in a noose and I can't break loose
Girl, my nights are lonely
You know I'm needing you only
Don't want to live without you
Don't want to live without you
No, no
You got me dangling on a string (Got me dangling, ooh)
Please don't you ever let me drop (Don't let)
'Cause my life would surely stop
Can't you see, can't you see that
You got me dangling on a string (Got me dangling, ooh)
Please don't you let me drop (Don't let)
'Cause my life would surely stop
Oh, girl, can't you see that
You got me dangling on a string (Got me dangling, ooh)
Please don't you let me drop (Don't let)
'Cause my life would surely stop
Can't you see, can't you see that you
