Set me free, why don't you babe?
Get out my life, why don't you babe?
'Cause you don't really love me.
You just keep me hangin' on.
Set me free, why don't you babe?
Get out my life, why don't you babe?
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
'Cause you don't really need me.
But just keep me hangin' on.
Why do you keep a comin' around
playing with my heart?
Why don't you get out of my life
and let me make a brand new start?
Let me get over you
the way you've gotten over me yeah.
Set me free, why don't you babe?
Get out my life, why don't you babe?
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on
No you don't really need me
You just keep me hangin' on
You say although we broke up
You still wanna be just friends
But how can we still be friends
When seeing you only breaks my heart again.
And there ain't nothing I can do about it
Woah, woah, woh.
Woah, woah, woah, woh.
Woah, woah, woah, woh.
Woah, woah, woh, yeah.
Get out, get outta my life,
and let me sleep at night.
'Cause you don't really love me.
You just keep me (hangin' on) hangin' on
You say you still care for me,
but your heart and soul needs to be free.
And now that you've got your freedom,
you wanna still hold on to me.
You don't want me for yourself,
so let me find somebody else.
Set me free, why don't you babe?
Get out my life, why don't you babe?
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
'Cause you don't really love me.
You just keep me hangin' on.
Why don't you be a man about it.
Set me free (ooh, ooh, ooh).
No you don't care a thing about me
You're just using me, hey abusing me.
Get out, get outta my life.
and let me sleep at night.
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on...
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
