Lyrics |
Is there anyone around who cannot see it's the well known run around you're giving me, I suppose you'll tell me I'm all wrong, It's a bitter pill to take, coming from you, tho' I've made a big mistake, what can I do? I don't know what makes me string along. Chorus I don't want you, but I'd hate to lose you, You've got me in between the devil and the deep blue sea, I forgive you, 'cause I can't forget you, You've got me in between the devil and the deep blue sea, I ought to cross you off my list, but when you come knocking at my door, Fate seems to give my heart a twist, and I come running back for more, I should hate you, but I guess I love you, You've got me in between the devil and the deep blue sea. |
