Set me free, why don't you, babe?
Get out my life, why don't you, babe?
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
You don't really need me
You just keep me hangin' on
Why do you keep coming around
Playing with my heart
Why don't you get out of my life
And let me make a new start
Let me get over you
The way you've gotten over me, hey
Set me free, why don't you, baby?
Get out my life, why don't you, babe? (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
You don't really need me
You just keep me hangin' on
You say although we broke up
You still wanna be just friends
But how can we still be friends
When seeing you only breaks my heart again?
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Set me free, why don't you, babe?
Get out my life, why don't you, babe? (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on
You claim you still care about me
But your heart and soul need to be free
Now that you've got your freedom
You still wanna hold on to me
You don't want me for yourself
So let me find somebody else, hey
Just let me be a man about it
Just set me free (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
You don't care a thing about me
You're just using me (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Go on, get out, get out of my life
And let me sleep at night (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on
You don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on
Set me free, why don't you, baby?
Get out my life, why don't you, babe? (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Get out my life, why don't you, babe?
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
You don't really need me
You just keep me hangin' on
Why do you keep coming around
Playing with my heart
Why don't you get out of my life
And let me make a new start
Let me get over you
The way you've gotten over me, hey
Set me free, why don't you, baby?
Get out my life, why don't you, babe? (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
You don't really need me
You just keep me hangin' on
You say although we broke up
You still wanna be just friends
But how can we still be friends
When seeing you only breaks my heart again?
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Set me free, why don't you, babe?
Get out my life, why don't you, babe? (Ooh-ooh-ooh)

You don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on
Set me free, why don't you, baby?
Get out my life, why don't you, babe? (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
