You've got me goin' 'round in circles again
Been through this too many times
It's a beginning, without any end
A riddle without any rhymes

You've taken my soul for a ride
Oh what can I do

Because my hands are tied
You're never satisfied
Ooh yeah my hands are tied
How can I give what you've taken away

You say you want me just the way that I am
But that's not how you feel
Your mind keeps changin'
I don't know where I stand
You've made it so hard to tell what is real

I don't know what's keepin' me here
But I can't break away

Because my hands are tied
You're never satisfied
Oh baby my hands are tied
How can I give what you've taken away.

Ooh, oh darlin', you're tearin' me apart
An' I, I, I just can't take it anymore
Oh, oh, oh, well it's killin' me baby, yer killin' me baby
I can't give what you've taken away
Can't give what you've taken, away

Hands are tied
You're never satisfied
Ooh baby my hands are tied
How can I give what you've taken away

Hands are tied
Well yer killin' me baby, yer tearin' me up inside
Oh-oh my hands are tied,

I can't give what you've taken
Give what you've taken, away

Oh-oh, yet tearin' me apart
My hands are tied
How can I give what you've taken
Give what you've taken
