Secretly I hope and pray that
Some day I would find someone llike him
And then he came along
But little did, did I suspect
That he would make me blue and break my heart
How could I've been so wrong

I say goodbye to him a thousand times
Within my mind, but face to face
I just can't seemed to find the words, the words
A love like ours will never last
That's what the people say
Sometimes I wish we never met
Yet I can't seemed to let him go, oh... oh... oh...

He's got a hold on me
Whenever we're together
Feels like ecstasy
He's got a hold on me
Feels like we're forever
Feels like ecstasy
He's got a hold on me
I can't explain it, he's got a hold on me
Mm... mm...

Another night I sat alone
Jumping every time I hear the telephone rings
Praying that he might call
I asked myself, "Why put up with all those silly games
He put me through?"
And I can't explain, oh

You know, they say that
Love can make you do strangest things
And up till now I never knew he'll think of me
Oh, I guess I never thought
That I would fall in love this way
And now I never need a love
What I am pretty sure it's gone
Whoo!

He's got a hold on me
Whenever we're together
Feels like ecstasy, like ecstasy, baby
He's got a hold on me
I can't explain it, he's got a hold on me, yeah
He's got a hold on me, yeah, ooh! Ha, ha!
Yeah!
He's got a hold on me...
Mm, mm, mm
