Mhm, mhm, mhm
Mhm, mhm, mhm

You've got a hold of me
Don't even know your power
I stand a hundred feet
But I fall when I'm around ya

Show me an open door
You go and slam it on me
I can't take anymore
I'm saying, baby

Please have mercy on me
Take it easy on my heart
Even though you don't mean to hurt me
No, you keep tearing me apart
Would you please have (sing) mercy
Mercy, yeah, on my heart?
Would you please have mercy
Mercy, yeah, on my heart?

Mhm, mhm, mhm

I'd drive through the night
Just to be near you, baby, sing
Heart open, testify
Tell me that I'm not crazy

I'm not asking for a lot
Just that you're honest with me
And my pride is all I got
So I'm saying, baby

Please have mercy on me
Take it easy on my heart
Even though you don't mean to hurt me
No, you keep tearing me apart
Would you please have mercy on me
And I'm a puppet on your strings
And even though you got good intentions
No, I need you to set me free
Would you please have mercy, mercy, yeah, on my heart?
Would you please have mercy, oh, mercy, yeah, on my heart?

Consuming all the air inside my lungs
Ripping all the skin from off my bones
I'm prepared to sacrifice my life
I would gladly do it twice
Consuming all the air inside my lungs
Ripping all the skin from off my bones
I'm prepared to sacrifice my life
I would gladly do it twice

Oh, please have mercy on me, yeah
Take it easy on my heart
Even though you don't mean to hurt me, sing
You keep tearing me apart
Would you please have mercy on me?
And I'm a puppet on your string
Even though you got good intentions
Now I need you to set me free

I'm begging you for mercy, yeah 
Would you please have mercy, yeah
Mercy, no
Mhm, mhm, mhm

Thank you
