Do you love me or do you hate it's only when you would look at me that way (out of mind) i've been hanging round here for much too long (here on my own) when i feel that tremble deep inside i know my troubles just begun (chorus) i met your mercy when you turned me on i try to think twice about the bad times oh i try to think twice about the bad times. empty handed was my middle name yet i feel a littl righteous just the same (i heard the news) who knew i'd be traded in for a better bunch (a better bunch) when you left me standin' with so much to lose oh baby, what's a man to do? (chorus)
