He's Got A Hold On Me - Stacy Lattisaw

Secretly I hope and pray that

Some day I would find someone like 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
