Told me you love me right from the start.
Don't play no tricks, girl, don't break my heart.
Told me you love me and I said why?
You think that I'm gonna cry?

Can't you see, woman, what you're doing to me?
I am bound (any time) you set me free.

You jerk on my heart, you shatter my brain.
If you have conscience ain't that a shame?
Told me you love me to make me cry.
And I don't, said, I don't know why.

Can't you see what you're doing to me?
I said I am bound, set me free.

Can't you see what you're doing to me?
I am bound, come on, set me free.

Then if you love me don't treat me so bad.
I could give you something you never had.
See you sitting up there and you're looking so mad.
Your imagination is making you sad.

Can't you see, woman, what you're doing to me?
I am bound, I am bound, you've got to set me free.
Can't you see, what you're doing to me?
I said I am bound, I am bound,
you better, better, better set me free, set me free.
Come on! Can't you, can't you see,
what you're doing, doing, doing to me?
I am bound by you, come on, set me free.
