Danglin' On a String

You've got me dangling on a string
Please don't let me drop
My life will surely stop

'Cause I'm trapped 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'll admit it
Your love has become
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
Please don't let me drop
'Cause you're everything I've got
'Cause I'm trapped in a dream
of needing you so
The 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 take
the rest of me

You've got me dangling on a string
Please don't let me drop
You're everything I've got

'Cause I'm trapped in a dream
of needing you so
My heart's in a noose
and I can't break loose

Girl, my nights are so lonely...
(Girl, my nights are so lonely...)
Ooh, I'm needing you only...
Ooh, I'm needing you only...
Dah, dah, ditty doh...
(Dah, dah, ditty doh...)

I only drink enough
from your loving cup
to keep me thirsty
Girl my need for you
is oh so strong
until it hurts me

You've got me dangling on a string
Please don't let me drop
You're everything I've got
'Cause I'm trapped in a dream
of needing you so
The feeling is strong
and I can't let go

You've got me dangling on a string...
