 Set me free why don't  cha babe.  Get out of my life why don't  cha babe,
 'cause you don't really love/need  me. You just  keep me hangin'  on!
 Chorus :
Why  do you keep a comin' around playing  with my heart?
Why  don't cha 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, yeeeah!
 No you don’t really need me, you just keep me hangin’ on.
You  say although we broke up, you still  just wanna be friends.
But  how can we still be friends, when seeing  you only breaks my
heart agaa-aa-aa-ain.
 Wo-uu wo-uu wow!  Wo-uu wo-uu  wow!

 Get out, get out of my life, and let me sleep at night.
 'Cos you don't really love me, you just keep me 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 e-e-else.
