Yeah, yeah, yeah

I love you but I gotta stay true
My moral's got me on my knees
I'm begging please
Stop playing games

I don't know what this is but you got me good
Just like you knew you would
I don't know what you do but you do it well
I'm under your spell

You got me begging you for mercy
Why won't you release me?
You got me begging you for mercy
Why won't you release me?
I said release me

Now you think that I
Will be something on the side
But you got to understand that I need a man
Who can take my hand, yes I do

I don't know what this is but you got me good
Just like you knew you would
I don't know what you do but you do it well
I'm under your spell

You got me begging you for mercy
Why won't you release me?
You got me begging you for mercy
Why won't you release me?
I said you better release me

I'm begging you for mercy
Just why won't you release me?
I'm begging you for mercy
You got me begging, you got me begging
You got me begging

Mercy, why won't you release me?
I'm begging you for mercy
Why won't you release me?
You got me begging you for mercy

I'm begging you for mercy
I'm begging you for mercy
I'm begging you for mercy
I'm begging you for mercy
Why won't you release me?

You got me begging you for mercy
You got me begging down on my knees
I said you got me begging, begging you for mercy
You got me begging

    I found my ex-lover. We are still in love because we had no closure. I am recently widowed. He is still married. I am pining over him like a lovesick puppy. He wants me to be part of his life, and although he has an unfillfilling marriage, she still has to come first for him. We talk Mon.-Thurs. We text whenever we can, often sexual stuff. Fri.-Sun he can't talk or text. I get angry. I feel betrayed and used. I am so drawn to him, but this whole thing is wrong and demeaning. I am a good person, but this relationship makes me feel slutty. I can't seem to let go though. I need him to let me go so I can move forward in my life. Nothing can come of this. These song lyrics fit my life right now to a tee.
