You've got me wrapped around your finger Like a yo-yo on a string Playing games with my heart And I can't do a thing Well you throw me down than you snap Me up I'm in the palm of your hand Why you get your kicks doin' All these tricks I'll never understand
You give me just enough rope, just enough hope Just enough ties that bind Just enough love but not enough Off security or piece of mind You give me just enough slack then You yank me back right before I'm gone You give me just enough rope Just enough hope to keep me hangin' on
Well you tell me that you love me Then you push me away How you're gonna treat me changes day to day Well you build me up then you tear me down And when you've got me standing tall You pull the rug out from under me just to watch me fall
You give me just enough rope Just enough hope, just enough ties that bind Just enough love but not enough Off security or piece of mind You give me just enough slack then You yank me back right before I'm gone You give me just enough rope Just enough hope to keep me hangin' on
You give me just enough rope Just enough hope, just enough ties that bind Just enough love but not enough Off security or piece of mind You give me just enough slack then You yank me back right before I'm gone You give me just enough rope Just enough hope to keep me hangin' on
