about

“Under Your Thumb”
So the relationship is perfect, the person is everything you’ve wanted, more than you ever thought you would have, a dream come true. Then poof, it’s gone. So you move on, collect yourself and just about the time everything seems to be just fine.............here it is again, at your doorstep, offering you emotional and physical paradise...........if.......you just don’t screw it up, again. But about the time everything looks good, feels solid.........gone.....and you’re left to struggle with the bits and pieces that are left and you work to put it all back together....again. Then unbelievably, it’s back, although this time you realize it wasn’t you, it was them.......and it’s time to run.....

lyrics

LYRICS
I fell in love the first time I saw you, you looked so good to me
When you started walkin’ my way, I thought an angel must be watchin’ over me
We had so much in common you and I, We felt so young and free
We had everything going baby, at least that’s the way that it looked to me
You got restless, you left your mark, Now all I know is I’m alone in the dark uh uh

I thought no problem, I’ll live my own life, I don’t really need you
I had my heart broken before this feelin, ain’t nothin’ new
So I went me own way, the blind leading the blind
I never knew your hurtin’ ways were followin’ so close behind
You caught me, you grabbed me, It felt so fine
I wiggled like the fish on the proverbial line

I thought Hot Damn, here we go again, I’ll get it right this time
I thought I knew all the things I screwed up before, I thought I saw the shining light
But it wasn’t me, no it was you that the situation so uptight
Once again you’re on that midnight train, speeding out of my life
One, two, three, I’ll count to ten and I’ll start my life all over again

A couple years passed I got on with my life, I finally got it together
Then I saw you at a place we used to go, you could have knocked me over with a feather
You said, “Hello Baby I missed you so”, my silly heart skipped a beat
Then I looked down, at the ground, I said “You better get movin’ feet”
I may be crazy but I ain’t dumb, you’ll never again get me Under Your Thumb

I thought I was in love the first time I saw you, you looked so good to me
But now I know when you started walkin’ my way, it was the devil that was lookin’ over me
You certainly weren’t good for me and now I know that it’s true
Elegant looks and a curvy body sometime comes with the blues
I may be crazy but I ain’t dumb, you’ll never again get me Under Your Thumb
I may be crazy but I ain’t dumb, you’ll never again get me Under Your Thumb
