Strung Out

One very happy warm summer night

I saw your face, what could I do

So carefully I walked straight up to you

And in the shadow of a moonlit night

I saw those eyes a-shinin' through

Heart of gold I love you, misty blue

Whoa, it's hard to love somebody

Especially when they don't belong to you

'Cause they're loving someone else

Strung out and hung up on you

I feel like Bogart in a crazy movie

Bogie and me, we never beg

But this time maybe I've got voices in my head

They're sayin' that he's never been good to you

And he's always hurt and let you down

If what you need is good lovin', I'll be around

It's hard to love somebody

Especially when they don't belong to you

'Cause they're loving someone else

Strung out and hung up on you

Strung out

Strung out

Well, it's hard to love somebody

Especially when they don't belong to you

'Cause they're loving someone else

Strung out and hung up on you

It's hard to love somebody

Oh, when they don't belong to you

'Cause they're loving someone else,

Strung out and hung up on you

Strung out and hung up on you

Yeah, strung out
