Intro: |
You've got a hold of me |
Don't even know your power |
I stand a hundred feet |
But I fall when I'm around ya |
Show me an open door |
Then you go and slam it on me |
I can't take anymore |
I'm saying baby |
Please have mercy on me |
Take it easy on my heart |
Even though you don't mean to hurt me |
You keep tearing me apart |
Would you please have mercy, |
Mercy on my heart |
Would you please have mercy, |
Mercy on my heart |
I'd drive through the night |
Just to be near you baby |
Heart open, testified |
Tell me that I'm not crazy |
I'm not asking for a lot |
Just that you're honest with me |
My pride is all I got |
I'm saying baby |
Please have mercy on me |
Take it easy on my heart |
Even though you don't mean to hurt me |
You keep tearing me apart |
Would you please have mercy on me |
I'm a puppet on your strings |
And even though you got good intentions |
I need you to set me free |
Would you please have mercy, |
Mercy on my heart |
Would you please have mercy, |
Mercy on my heart |
Consuming all the air inside my lungs |
Ripping all the skin from off my bones |
I'm prepared to sacrifice my life |
I would gladly do it twice |
Consuming all the air inside my lungs |
Ripping all the skin from off my bones |
I'm prepared to sacrifice my life |
I would gladly do it twice |
Oh, please have mercy on me |
Take it easy on my heart |
Even though you don't mean to hurt me |
You keep tearing me apart |
Would you please have mercy on me |
I'm a puppet on your string |
And even though you got good intentions |
I need you to set me free |
I'm begging you for mercy, mercy |
I'm begging you, begging you please baby |
I'm begging you for mercy, mercy |
Oh, I'm begging you, I'm begging you, yeah |
