She's so soft
She's so kind
She makes the fire in my blood
Run away with my mind
And if it wasn't for him
She and I would be together tonight
It's not fair
It's not right
'Cause she's the one who could turn
All my darkness to light
So I carry this torch
Here in the shadows
Chorus:
He's really got a hold on her
And he's no fool
He knows what he's holding
He's really got a hold on her
And it tears me apart
'Cause she's got a hold on my heart
He treats her good
People say
And her friends think that
They'll be together always
What's the matter with me
I wish that I could just forget her
Still each day
I want her more
And though he's making love
To what I'm living for
I can't give up this dream
It's all that keeps me going
Chorus:
He's really got a hold on her
And he's no fool
He knows what he's holding
He's really got a hold on her
And it tears me apart
'Cause she's got a hold on my heart
Bridge:
In my mind, dreaming
Given time, she'd leave him
I can just see him
I can hear him talking about me
Yeah, I can hear him
And he's saying...
Chorus:
He's really got a hold on her
And he's no fool
He knows what he's holding
He's really got a hold on her
And it tears me apart
'Cause she's got a hold on my heart
