YOU'VE GOT ME ALL TIED UP - by Gretchen L. Bauknecht






















YOU'VE  GOT  ME  ALL   TIED  UP   


by Gretchen L. Bauknecht



You've got me all tied up,
   it's been this way for awhile,
      and the ropes and chains get tighter,
         every time I see you smile.



I'm trying to break free,
   but no matter what I do,
      you've got such a hold on me,
         that I'll never get away from you.



The worst thing about you doing this,
   is that you didn't even try,
      you know you've got me down,
         and still you pass me by.



But even with the chance to leave,
   I know that I would stay.
      I'll be here for you,
         for forever and a day.



You've got me all tied up,
   but you could never set me free,
      because the only way to let me go, 
         is by loving me.
