If you, if you could return

Don't let it burn, don't let it fade

I'm sure, I'm not being rude

But it's just your attitude

It's tearing me apart

Is ruining everything

I swore, I swore I would be true

And honey, so did you

So why were you holding her hand?

Is that the way we stand?

Were you lying all the time?

Was it just a game to you?

But I'm in so deep

You know, I'm such a fool for you

You got me wrapped around your finger

Do you have to let it linger?

Do you have to, do you have to, do you have to let it linger?

♪ ♪ ♪

Oh, I thought the world of you

I thought nothing could go wrong

But I was wrong, I was wrong

If you, if you could get by

Trying not to lie

Things wouldn't be so confused

And I wouldn't feel so used

But you always really knew

I just wanna be with you

And I'm in so deep

You know, I'm such a fool for you

You got me wrapped around your finger

Do you have to let it linger?

Do you have to, do you have to, do you have to let it linger?

♪ ♪ ♪

And I'm in so deep

You know, I'm such a fool for you

You got me wrapped around your finger?

Do you have to let it linger?

Do you have to, do you have to, do you have to let it linger?

You know, I'm such a fool for you

You got me wrapped around your finger

Do you have to let it linger?

Do you have to, do you have to, do you have to let it linger?
