Mmmmmmm
You've got a hold on me
Hey don't you know
We've gone to far for me to let you go
You sold my love away
And then you tried
To see it burning in a stranger's eyes
I remember the good times
I remember the things we used to do
Now i know what made Otis blue
Girl, it must be love
What we're going through
Now i know what made Otis blue
Every single night
I keep holding you
Don't make me sleep alone
Don't make me bleed
How can you waste your love in jealousy
If we're together baby
Your eyes will see
There is no other lover here with me
Do you remember the good times?
Do you remember when every word was true?
Now i know what made Otis blue
Girl, it must be love
What we're going through
Now i know what made Otis blue
Every single night
I keep holding you
There's no one else, only you
And i'm begging you
Don't turn my heart to hurt this
Oh no
Now i know what made Otis blue
Ooooh
Now i know what made Otis blue
Girl, it must be love
What we're going through
Now i know what made Otis blue
Every single night
I keep holding you
You've got a hold on me
Hey don't you know
We've gone to far for me to let you go
You sold my love away
And then you tried
To see it burning in a stranger's eyes
I remember the good times
I remember the things we used to do
Now i know what made Otis blue
Girl, it must be love
What we're going through
Now i know what made Otis blue
Every single night
I keep holding you
Don't make me sleep alone
Don't make me bleed
How can you waste your love in jealousy
If we're together baby
Your eyes will see
There is no other lover here with me
Do you remember the good times?
Do you remember when every word was true?
Now i know what made Otis blue
Girl, it must be love
What we're going through
Now i know what made Otis blue
Every single night
I keep holding you
There's no one else, only you
And i'm begging you
Don't turn my heart to hurt this
Oh no
Now i know what made Otis blue
Ooooh
Now i know what made Otis blue
Girl, it must be love
What we're going through
Now i know what made Otis blue
Every single night
I keep holding you
