My heart is poundin' look at all the trouble I got
Feels like I'm drowning but here I am whether I like it or not
I can't resist a dress that's way too tight
The kinda girl that keeps you up all night
I take to love like a dog to a bone
Why am I sittin' here on my own


Cause I can't get a hold on love
Slips through my fingers like a little white dove
Can't get a hold on love
but I can't leave it alone


Helpless me oh helpless me t' go through all this passion and pain
Just when I think I got someone to love
Here I am standing out in the rain
I can't resist a dress that's way too tight
The kinda girl that keeps you up all night
I take to love like a dog to a bone
now I'm sittin' here on my own


Cause I can't get a hold on love
Slips through my fingers like a little white dove
Can't get a hold on love
but I can't leave it alone


Cause I can't get a hold on love
Slips through my fingers like a little white dove
Can't get a hold on love
but I can't leave it alone
