YOU REALLY GOT A HOLD ON ME

I don't like you, but I love you
Seems that I'm always thinkin' of you
Tho' oh oh you treat me badly
I love you madly

You really got a hold on me (You really got a hold on me)
You really got a hold on me (You really got a hold on me)
Baby

I don't want you, but I need you
Don't wanna kiss you, but I need to
Tho' oh oh you do me wrong now
My love is strong now

You really got a hold on me (You really got a hold on me)
You really got a hold on me (You really got a hold on me)
Baby, I love you
And all I want you to do is just
Hold me, hold me, hold me (hold me)

I wanna leave you, don't wanna stay here
Don't wanna spend another day here
Tho' oh oh I wanna split now
I can't quit now

You really got a hold on me (You really got a hold on me)
You really got a hold on me (You really got a hold on me)

Baby, I love you
And all I want you to do is just
(Hold) please, (hold) squeeze, hold me (hold me)

You really got a hold on me (You really got a hold)
I said, you really got a hold on me (You really got a hold)
You know, you really got a hold on me
