Set me free, why don't ya, baby?<br />
Get out my life, why don't ya, baby?<br />
'Cause you don't really love me<br />
You just keep me hangin' on<br />
You don't really need me<br />
But you keep me hangin' on<br />
<br />
Why do you keep a coming around<br />
Playing with my heart?<br />
Why don't you get out of my life<br />
And let me make a new start?<br />
Let me get over you the way you've gotten over me<br />
<br />
Set me free, why don't ya, babe?<br />
Let me be, why don't ya, babe?<br />
'Cause you don't really love me<br />
You just keep me hangin' on<br />
No, you don't really want me<br />
You just keep me hangin' on<br />
<br />
You say although we broke up<br />
You still wanna be just friends<br />
But how can we still be friends<br />
When seeing you only breaks my heart again?<br />
<br />
And there ain't nothing I can do about it<br />
<br />
Set me free, why don't ya, babe?<br />
Get out of my life, why don't ya, babe?<br />
You don't really love me<br />
But you just keep me hangin' on<br />
<br />
You claim you still care for me<br />
But your heart and soul needs to be free<br />
Now that you've got your freedom<br />
You wanna still hold on to me<br />
You don't want me for yourself<br />
So let me find somebody else, hey<br />
<br />
Why don't you be a man about it and set me free?<br />
No, you don't care a thing about me<br />
You're just using me<br />
<br />
Go on, get out, get out of my life<br />
And let me sleep at night<br />
Please, 'cause you don't really love me<br />
You just keep me hangin' on
